Book Overview
It seems baseball and murder keep intersecting in the professional lives of NYPD Detective Gordon Hodges and his partner, Carl Furillo.
Last time around, it was Boston Red Sox star centerfielder Willie Starmaker. This time, it's the Los Angeles Dodgers' rookie sensation, Colt Alexander, a case that's keeping the detectives up at night.

The chase to find the killer before he completes his grisly vendetta will take Hodges, Furillo, and other allies on a chase from the East Coast to the West Coast, and into the depths of depravity.
The question is not only can they catch the murderer, but can they catch him in time? Meanwhile, the bodies keep piling up ...
