World War II threatened to ruin Major League Baseball. By 1945, over 500 major leaguers and 3,000 minor league prospects had been enlisted for the war effort, leaving a dearth of talent for the Big Leagues. The St. Louis Browns, like other AL and NL clubs, would be forced to fill holes in their roster with scrubs-4-F players (those dismissed from the military due to physical ailments), retired major leaguers, and youngsters not yet ready to leave the minors. But there were still some top level players to be had, and 1944 Browns manager Luke Sewell assembled the franchise's most successful team ever, taking the St. Louis ball club to its first and only Fall Classic.

The Vietnam war coincided with great social change: The sexual revolution, the emergence of psychedelic drugs, the erosion of traditional marriage and the feminist movement all created new social conflicts. Ted Cochran, at seventeen estranged from his traditional family, finds solace in the new social ideas. But shocked by the moral failures of the adults he encounters in this new world, he becomes confused about his own values and attachments. In spite of inner conflict, and thinking he can make the life he wants after the war, Ted enlists in the Navy. Like most of the young men he trains with, he faces a reality he could not have imagined.

"Fans of true crime will praise this in-depth account of a notorious organized-crime case." - Library Journal, Starred Review "Sewell sheds new light on a high-profile case in this exciting and superbly told history." -Booklist Retired FBI Special Agent Mark Sewell was a rookie in 1997 when he was assigned to investigate mafia associate Steve Kaplan and his enormously successful Atlanta strip club; the largest single money maker for the Gambino Crime Family. Accompanied by a small team of investigators, the hand-picked unit followed a money trail, that wound up implicating a Gambino Captain, police officers, strippers, and many of the most recognized professional athletes in America. The subsequent 2001 trial was covered nationally by the leading media outlets, from television newscasts to late night talk shows and nationally published magazines pushing new, sensational headlines daily.
