A Mystery Thriller
⚾ A dead sports agent. A future baseball superstar. A killer hiding behind Cape Cod's perfect summer postcard.
Deacon Cross came to Cape Cod for one reason: evaluate the nation's top baseball prospect before the upcoming draft.
He wasn't looking for trouble.
Trouble found him anyway.
When a powerful sports agent washes up dead on a rocky shoreline, local authorities are eager to call it an accident. A drunken fall. A tragic mistake. Case closed.
But Deacon knows better.
He met the victim the day before.
The agent had been trying to buy a favorable scouting report for his prized client-a gifted young shortstop projected to become a first-round draft pick worth millions.
Now the agent is dead.
His skull has been crushed.
And someone is working very hard to make sure nobody asks questions.
As Deacon digs deeper into the elite world of summer baseball, he uncovers a web of corruption, secret payoffs, powerful developers, ambitious sports agents, and local officials desperate to protect the image of a wealthy tourist paradise.
The deeper he investigates, the more dangerous the game becomes.
Because the killer isn't protecting a secret.
They're protecting an empire.
With a rising baseball phenom caught in the middle, a police chief determined to bury the truth, and powerful interests manipulating events from the shadows, Deacon finds himself facing an opponent far more dangerous than anyone on the field.
In Cape Cod, everyone wants the summer to stay perfect.
No matter how many bodies wash ashore.
