Description

Everybody loves a winner, and the Rabbs are major league. Marty is the Red Sox star pitcher, Linda the loving wife. She loves everyone except the blackmailer out to wreck her life.

Is Marty throwing fast balls or throwing games? It doesn't take long for Spenser to link Marty's performance with Linda's past...or to find himself trapped between a crazed racketeer and an enforcer toting an M-16.

America's favorite pastime has suddenly become a very dangerous sport, and one wrong move means strike three, with Spenser out for good!

    Usual and customary five star yarn from Parker. Spenser is the greatest. Good action and great en ding.
  • Early Spenser and proud of it.

    Great to see how Spenser evolves and grows into the lovable thug we all enjoy. As always, entertaining and well paced. A satisfying read. Highly recommended.
