If you "liked" the first book you will love this second one! It takes you more in depth into the charactor's lives and relationships and as you get to know them a mystery subtletly is forming with murders to follow. Baseball is more in the background in this book. I liked how you were gentley reminded of what happened in the other book and the way its done it could be a stand alone book too. The scenes with the shrink were very well done, it made me think of Tony Soprano on tv and the tense relationship he had with his lady shrink. Written like a pro and a enjoyable read!

After all the craziness of his first book, we all assumed the world of baseball in Philadelphia would go back to normal. Turns out we couldn't be farther from the truth! In this sequal to his first publication, Mr. Schatz again takes us on a whirlwind ride, involving failiar faces still trying to recover from the bedlam of the World Series. He doesn't suffer from any let down, as this book is just as fun and fast paced as the first one! A page turner, I was unable to put it down, and I wound up reading the whole book in just under 24 hours!
Congratulations to Mr. Schatz on yet another amazing book! I eagerly look forward to reading more of his work!
