| LAUNCH: T.T. Monday (aka local author Nick Taylor) Tuesday, March 11, 7:30 p.m.
Johnny Adcock is an aging Major League pitcher with the perfect retirement plan—he moonlights as a private investigator. Major League Baseball, as it turns out, is a prime source of employment for a philosophically inclined, discreet detective who has both the brains and the brawn to handle the unique problems of professional athletes. Those infamous baseball salaries attract gangsters, hustlers, and predators of every persuasion who prey on the outsized egos of primetime stars. "A Home Run! What else can you call the funny, riveting, absolutely first-rate debut by T.T. Monday about a professional baseball player who moonlights as a private investigator? I loved this book and its hero, Johnny Adcock. (Note to reader: I'm not even a baseball fan.)” --Christopher Reich, New York Times bestselling author of Rules of Betrayal and The Prince of Risk |
