Grisham knocks it out of the park

Washington Post

THE TRACY FAMILY ARE ABOUT TO BE THROWN A CURVEBALL.

Thirty years have passed since the day that changed eleven-year-old Paul Tracy's life: he watched his troubled father, Warren, a pitcher for the New York Mets, clash violently with Joe Castle, star of the Chicago Cubs and Paul's hero.

Now Warren Tracy is dying - and his son has decided it's time for them to face what really happened on that baseball field in 1973. Taking a trip to Calico Rock, Arkansas, father and son will both face the consequences of what happened to Joe Castle.

But will redemption be waiting for them on the other side?
