1. Hunting a Detroit Tiger (Unabridged)
Troy Soos' sparkling Mickey Rawlings Baseball mysteries pack early 1900's baseball
lore and colorful period details into baffling whodunits. Hunting a Detroit Tiger vividly
brings to life the turbulent post-World War I days when the nation partied with bootleg
liquor and labor unrest swept the nation with violence. After briefly fighting in the
Great War, Mickey enjoys playing baseball as a utility infielder for the Detroit Tigers.
Hearing rumors about a ballplayers' union, he attends a labor meeting to satisfy his
curiosity. But when a union organizer dies at the meeting, the Industrial Workers of
the World falsely accuse him of murder. Just when Mickey's career is on the upswing,
he finds himself in a dangerous squeeze play between the players' union and the
owners. A member of the Society for American Baseball Research and a graduate of
a professional umpire school, Troy Soos uses his expertise to craft believable
characters and lively tales. Johnny Heller's expert narration will whisk you back to the
roaring 20's when larger-than-life players captivated the nation.
