6-4-10 Fade Away by Harlan Coben - Fiction

4 - This Myron Bolitar novel is centered around basketball. Myron was almost a professional basketball player out of college. He was drafted by the Celtics in the first round but his knee was shattered in a preseason game, ending his basketball career. Eleven years later he is offered a place on the Dragons by the man who drafted him for the Celtics. But this isn't altruism or a belief in his playing ability; he's hired to find a missing player who also happens to be his college rival. It's almost the playoffs and the majority owner of the team is getting nervous. As Myron faces the agony of his lost chance he becomes involved in a complex mystery that involves a sixties radical group, a big time bad ass loan shark, and a very messy child custody battle. I'm loving these books.
