"A Lawrence De Maria title gives you more bang for your buck than just about anything in the book marketplace today." (FLORIDA WEEKLY) *** "Another winner from the prolific De Maria, who this time mixes the mob, sex and big-time football in a toxic stew!" *** (John Crudele, NEW YORK POST) *** "A master of thriller dialogue." (WASHINGTON INDEPENDENT REVIEW OF BOOKS) ***A nervous media organization hires investigator Jake Scarne to see if freelancer Cassie Mulloy has uncovered a huge scoop that will rock the football world - or is actually risking a massive libel suit. And more than a sports scandal is at stake. An innocent man may be behind bars for a murder he did not commit! Scarne soon suspects that the wrong man may indeed be in prison. But he's not convinced the rest of Mulloy's story makes any sense. And that's what he reports to his client before leaving for Europe to attend a friend's wedding. Then all hell breaks loose. Rushing back to America, Scarne discovers something far worse than he, or anyone else, suspected.***Winner of an Associated Press award for crime reporting, Lawrence De Maria cut his teeth on financial corruption at The New York Times and Forbes.
