Usually they cover sporting events together, now he’s covering her. But Stevie can’t shake the feeling that something’s not right.

    Praise

    Booklist, May 1, 2012:
    “As in his earlier books in the series, the popular Feinstein takes readers inside a major sports venue, supplies fascinating details, and serves up a satisfying mystery.”

    Kirkus Reviews, April 1, 2012:
    “As is his wont, Feinstein salts the cast with real athletes and other figures from Michael Phelps to Bob Costas. He folds plenty of dramatic sports action as well as behind-the-scenes banter and personal and family conflict into a plot that moves smoothly to a suspenseful climax…A fast-paced caper.”
