Harvey Blissberg is a former major league outfielder and private investigator with a bad case of what his girlfriend, Mickey Slavin, calls "sad man-ism." But a phone call from his former team, the Providence Jewels, snaps him out of his funk and into a clubhouse filled with deadly tensions. Outfielder Moss Cooley is on the brink of doing the unthinkable - breaking Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting streak record - and anonymous threats on his life begin with the arrival of a headless lawn jockey...followed soon after by the head.Harvey Blissberg may have his qualms about the way the summer game is played these days, and he has certainly lost a step or two on the center field grass, but he's in perfect condition to stop a murderer in his tracks.
