Book Review
Kidnappers have snatched the teenage son of super-star golfer Linda Coldren and her husband, Jack, an aging pro, at the height of the U.S. Open. To help get the boy back, sports agent Myron Bolitar goes charging after clues and suspects from the Main Line mansions to a downtown cheaters' motel--and back in time to a U.S. Open twenty-three years ago, when Jack Coldren should have won, but didn't. Suddenly Myron finds him self surrounded by blue bloods, criminals, and liars. And as one family's darkest secrets explode into murder, Myron finds out just how rough this game can get.

My Review
This was a great golf mystery with quirky characters and a plot with lots of twists and turns. I enjoyed learning more about Win and his background. This is also story of violence and betrayal; particularly the pain that family members can inflict upon one another. A must read for anyone who likes mysteries with depth and has a sense of humor. I look forward to reading the next Myron Bolitar mystery very shortly.
