From the back cover:
"1947: Jackie Robinson breaks major-league baseball''s color barrier - and changes the world. The event also changes the life of Joseph Burke, veteran of World War II and Robinson''s bodyguard - because under the media spotlight, hard truths are easier than ever to see, and harder to escape. And some can prove fatal."
As a baseball fan and a Jackie Robinson fan, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I''m also a fan of Parker''s Spenser novels, but I think his passion for baseball brought a depth to this book beyond even the best of those.
