Dead Solid Favorite: A Comic Mystery (or vice versa) About Bread and Circuses

By Chris Bergman

Dead Solid Favorite: A Comic Mystery (or Vice Versa) About Bread and Circuses is a clever, fast-paced satire combining mystery, humor, and a few twists. If you like Donald E. Westlake, Carl Hiaasen, Elmore Leonard, Don Winslow, or Dan Jenkins, you'll enjoy Dead Solid Favorite's crisp dialogue and skewed outlook on the often-ridiculous collision of sports, media, and business.When intrepid ScoreCenter scriptwriter Rae Bennion begins to look at the stories behind the stories, she finds memorable characters and learns more than she ever wanted to know about how sports, TV, and money influence-and are influenced by-each other. Breezy, sardonic, and witty, Dead Solid Favorite will provide you with more laughs than a three-hour pregame show, and probably more insight too.Chris Bergman is an advertising guy, a media business executive, a magazine editor and contributor, and a mediocre former athlete. He's pretty sure at least some of this story is probably true.
