"In 1964, nineteen-year-old Billy Dupaul was on his way to stardom. A
modest farm boy with a lightning fastball, he had just signed a record
contract with the New York Mets when a single gunshot changed his life
forever. Dupaul went down on an attempted murder rap, and the Mets
washed their hands of him. Eight years later, the man he was said to
have shot drops dead when a shard of bullet works its way into his
brain. After eight summers in Attica, Billy is about to be tried for
murder.
After throwing him to the wolves in 1964, the vice
president of the Mets shows surprising interest in the case and hires
Hank Ross, one of the toughest defense attorneys in Manhattan, to save
the boy from the chair. It's an impossible assignment, and Ross will
find the case has more bite than any big-league curve."--Fantasticfiction.
Very scarce Robert Hale publication.
