"A world of murder, porn, prostitution and Mexican cartels. . . . This rookie thriller writer has homered his first time at bat."--The Free Lance-Star

"Filled with baseball lore, Monday's novel is an amusing and entertaining literary thriller."--The Daily Beast

"Don't shy away from this mystery if you're not a baseball fan. The industry is seamlessly interwoven into the story and you'll pick up all you need to know without any effort. If you are a baseball fan, dive in headfirst....This is the author's first thriller, but I hope it's not his last."--Suspense Magazine

"Monday has a "Dragnet"-like, just-the-facts style and offers lots for baseball fans to enjoy as well.'"--New York Post

" Monday's plot is inventive, but it's the verisimilitude of Adcock's baseball life that makes this one a delight. Adcock is a solid MLB citizen. . . . Here's hoping he has many more seasons and many more cases."--Booklist, Starred review

"T.T. Monday's prose is wry, funny and just smartass enough."--Toronto Star

"A throwback Southern California mystery in modern pinstripes....A treat for readers of mystery or baseball novels, this debut will be especially enjoyable for fans of both." --Kirkus Reviews
