Diamonds. Doubles. Murder. — William J. Palmer

Ron Reed, the ace pitcher of the L.A. Wave, the newest franchise in major league baseball, hires our Celebrity PI to surveille his lingerie model wife who he suspects is cheating. This fourth novel in the Sherlock Jones series of contemporary L.A. murder mysteries finds Sherlock, Sasha (his partner in Archer Investigations and sharpshooting lover), plus the WDGA (Wednesday Drunken Golfers Association) Disreputables (his zany yet adept rag-tag operatives and drinking buddies), cast into a dangerous sea of adultery, drugs, double-dealing, and betrayal. Here in L.A. the national pastime is drowning in a tsunami of perversity that ultimately leads to murder.
