This is the first book I have read by James Grippando and I really enjoyed this fast moving thriller. I think I was drawn to reading this because the main character in the book, Ryan James, was a minor league baseball player whose career was derailed after his wife is killed in an automobile accident. This left him alone with his young daughter and no answers to how or who was involved in the accident. It appears that his wife was run off the road by a drunk hit-and-run driver but is that what really happened? His wife's brother has Asperger's syndrome and he may have some answers but can they be relied on. On the 3-year anniversary of the accident, someone is providing some tips that the accident may not have been as it seems and that there was a witness to it. So who is this tipster and what does he know? Ryan, along with Emma Carlisle, the prosecutor on this cold case want to get to the bottom of what happened but getting there does not bode well for them as someone is trying to stop them and the story.

This was really a good page-turner and as I said, I enjoyed it even more because of the tie to baseball which I generally enjoy reading about. I hadn't really heard of this author before but I will probably be reading more of him.
