I sincerely hope [a:Ron Faust|223166|Ron Faust|http://www.goodreads.com/images/nophoto/nophoto-U-50x66.jpg] played ball better than he writes. According to [a:Scott Turow|2749|Scott Turow|http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1208462425p2/2749.jpg] on the cover of [a:Dead Men Rise Up Never|223166|Ron Faust|http://www.goodreads.com/images/nophoto/nophoto-U-50x66.jpg], Ron Faust is "A writer of enormous talent, a stylist to admire and a storyteller of great power." I disagree with all three points after reading this book. Maybe Turow had just read a different story by Faust.

Well-written crime/adventure thriller. Minus points: Some of the plot twists are a little too much and some of the characters are a little inconsistent. Plus points: Exciting and cool. Great villain! And this would make a good movie.
Unusual story, not really much baseball and the transsexual murders don't really play much part either. Mostly just the ramblings of a ballplayer who is kind of a social outcast and thinks he's going crazy.
