Deadball

Jerry Sanchez, a former major league baseball player and sports agent, has hit rock bottom. He's a lawyer living in Daytona Beach, Florida representing hookers and other folks at the lower level of the food chain when Mickey Seaver, a superstar major league baseball player with the New York Urbs, knocks on his door. Jerry and Mickey's deceased father, Tony, were best friends. Mickey is facing a murder charge, accused of killing one of his teammates, and he wants Jerry to represent him. Jerry tries to convince Mickey that he doesn't have the talent or experience to go up against New York's finest prosecutors but Mickey won't listen. He wants Jerry. Jerry owes a debt to his deceased friend Tony, so, against his better judgment and with no experience trying a murder case, he goes up against the best prosecutors in a New York City courtroom with the whole world watching. This book is fast-paced, funny, and you never know what is going to happen next.
