Everything is legal - if you can get away with it.
Billy Crawford is a hero. The star of the Rose City Rounders, the baseball player has been thrilling fans of the city for years. But Billy's not as young as he used to be and his tendency to play hard is catching up with him. A string of losses for the Rounders puts his position at risk as the team's owner, local developer Carroll Miller, doesn't like being associated with anything that loses. Miller's thinking of making changes, and not just at the team. When he decides to enter politics Billy suddenly finds himself facing an offer he can't refuse.
In this wise-cracking, fast-paced novel, Brad Smith lampoons today's scandal-ridden politics and politicians. But among the laughter, Smith also shows us there can be hope, and even integrity, where we least expect it.
