Summary
A Boston lawyer copes with a client who lies compulsively—and then disappears just as his wife is found dead: &“A pleasure . . . solidly plotted&” (Publishers Weekly). As a power forward for the Detroit Pistons, Mick Fallon distinguished himself with an… unerring ability to hit late-game free throws. Years after his retirement, the passion and focus he once put into basketball have been repurposed for something less admirable: gambling. A secret, crippling addiction has emptied Mick&’s savings, ruined his marriage, and may be threatening his life. When his wife demands a divorce, Mick turns to Brady Coyne—a lawyer with ethics—with a seemingly simple case that turns out to be one of the nastiest this Boston attorney has ever encountered. Mick doesn&’t want a divorce—he wants his wife back. When she is found savagely murdered in her living room, Mick is the natural suspect, but he has disappeared. To prove his client&’s innocence, and save his own life, Brady must learn something every ballplayer understands: To survive, you have to know how to hustle.
