Valerie Simpson, a young tennis star with a troubled past, seeks Myron as her agent for a comeback. Myron is thrilled, especially with his top client, Duane Richwood, on the brink of his first grand slam. However, everything changes when Valerie is murdered at the U.S. Open, and Duane becomes the prime suspect. While Duane has an alibi, playing a match during the murder, questions arise about his connection to Valerie, especially since her black book contains his number and she called him from a phone booth shortly before her death. The police quickly focus on a man with a history of stalking Valerie, but Myron believes the case is too straightforward. Digging deeper, he uncovers a dark past involving Valerie's fiancé, the son of a senator, who was murdered years earlier, leading to a cycle of violence and bureaucratic neglect. With powerful figures, including the senator and the mob, urging him to stop his investigation, Myron realizes that the truth is not only elusive but also perilous. As he navigates through layers of deception, Myron risks becoming the next target. Harlan Coben crafts a gripping tale with Myron Bolitar, a complex and engaging sports agent whose journey unfolds with wit and suspense.
