Drop shot

The young woman was shot dead in cold blood, dropped outside the stadium, in front of a stand selling Moet for $7.50 a glass. Once, her tennis career had skyrocketed. Now, at the height of the U.S. Open, the headlines were being made by another young player from the wrong side of the tracks. When sports agent Myron Bolitar investigates the killing, he uncovers a connection between the two players and a six-year-old murder at an exclusive mainline club. Suddenly Myron is in over his head. And with a dirty U.S. senator, a jealous mother, and the mob all drawn into the case, he finds himself playing the most dangerous game of all-up against a killer and the truth. In novels that crackle with wit and suspense, Edgar Award winner Harlan Coben has created one of the most fascinating and complex heroes in suspense fiction-Myron Bolitar-a hot-headed, tenderhearted sports agent who grows more engaging and unpredictable with each page-turning appearance.
