I., within the structure of a fictitious major league baseball team, The Jewels, which is struggling in its first year. Center fielder Harvey is determined to find out who killed his good friend Rudy, a relief pitcher for the team. The city police detective may or may not be on the case, and somehow no one on the team seems particularly concerned with locating the killer. Harvey's girl friend Mickey, a sportscaster, is on his side and provides some light and support to Harvey's otherwise dark days. The first in a series, this prompts me to track down the remaining four books bout Harvey. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique

A slugger struggles with an empty ballpark and a murdered teammate in this Edgar Award-winning mystery. The Providence Jewels, an American League expansion team, have been taking a beating all season. Worse, relief pitcher Rudy Furth has just suffered a beating of a more lethal kind--and been left to die in the clubhouse whirlpool among whispers of mob corruption and violently lovesick fans. When the police investigation stalls, veteran Providence center fielder Harvey Blissberg, who knew Furth as well as anyone, decides to play detective. While trying to keep his eye on the ball, and his head above water with the spunky, beautiful sports newscaster Mickey Slavin, Blissberg quietly stalks Furth's killer through major-league locker rooms and the dark streets of Rhode Island's capital city. Lots of ballplayers keep their batting averages above .300--but how many have chased a murderer at the same time? Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
