Swing: A Gun Pedersen Novel

Gunsten S ren Pedersen knew about baseball and death. A tragedy took the former slugger out of the major leagues, and the only diamonds he sees now are the stars shining in the cold night of Minnesota's North Woods. That is, until Miles Gates-an old friend in big trouble-calls him down to the Sunshine State. What Gun finds there is a trail of brutal killings, some aging ballplayers, shady characters, and the beautiful sister of a reporter who died for his story. Gun discovers the truth behind the murder spree, and he strikes at it as hard as he ever hit a fastball in his prime. But in the warmth of the Florida sun, old dreams and old hatreds have a way of coming back to life-and when Gun returns north, so does a man who wants him dead. Fans of Lee Child's Jack Reacher, Craig Johnson's Longmire, and William Kent Krueger's Cork O'Connor enjoy the Enger brothers' Gun Pedersen.
