Product Description:
Valerie Simpson is a young female tennis star with a troubled past who's now on the verge of a comeback and wants Myron as her agent. Myron, who's also got the hottest young male tennis star, Duane Richwood, primed to take his first grand slam tournament, couldn't be happier. That is, until Valerie is murdered in broad daylight at the U.S. Open and Myron's number one client becomes the number one suspect.
Clearing Duane's name should be easy enough. Duane was playing in a match at the time of Valerie's death. But why is his phone number in Valerie's black book when he claims only to have known her in passing? Why was she calling him from a phone booth on the street? The police stop caring once they pin the murder on a man known for having stalked Valerie and seen talking to her moments before the murder. But Myron isn't satisfied. It seems too clean for him.
Myron pries a bit and finds himself prying open the past where six years before, Valerie's fiancee, the son of a senator, was brutally murdered by a juvenile delinquent and a straight-A student was subsequently gunned down on the street in retaliation, his death squandered in bureaucratic files. And everyone from the Senator to the mob want Myron to stop digging.
The truth beneath the truth is not only dangerous, it's deadly. And Myron may be the next victim.
In novels that crackle with wit and suspense, Edgar Award winner Harlan Coben has created one of the most fascinating and complex heroes in suspense fiction—Myron Bolitar—a hotheaded, tenderhearted sports agent who grows more and more engaging and unpredictable with each page-turning appearance.
From the Paperback edition.

When a young female ex-tennis star is murdered at the gates of the U.S. Tennis Open, ex-lawyer turned sports agent (and pseudo detective) Myron Bolitar along with his slightly psycho pal, Win Lockwood, become involved in the investigation.
It seems the murder victim had intended to "make a comeback" and had been trying to contact Myron to engage his services as her agent before she met her untimely end. The mystery surrounding her death and its link to another murder six years earlier ... Read More

A good mystery read, plus the Myron Bolitar adds some humor.
A good flowing story.

Myron Bolitar books are always hilarious and highly entertaining. The characters of Myron, Win, Esperanza, and the rest are all great. This book was a typical Myron Bolitar book in that it is complex yet easy to read, and there are no dull parts because it is so funny. I highly recommend all books in this series!

Coben knows how to weave a story that keeps you up all night finishing his books. This is no exception and his protagonist Myron is the best. A must read for all mystery fans. Excellent writing, plot and characters.

Harlan Coben is a superstar of suspense fiction, but didn't really become a major bestselling writer until his tenth novel, TELL NO ONE, in 2001. Before writing TELL NO ONE, Coben wrote a highly enjoyable murder mystery series involving a sports agent named Myron Bolitar. The Bolitar books have quite the cult following, but never achieved the sales success of Coben's standalones. DROP SHOT, the second novel in this series, is a fun read.
Unlike Coben's more recent novels, DROP SHOT is ... Read More
