An old-timer visits New York City for a team reunion, but someone takes him out at the ballgame in this sharp-witted PI mystery. Widowed ex-cop and PI Paul Finley still sticks close to his father-in-law—a bond rooted more in shared grief than shared affection—and one of Joe’s biggest passions is the annual Brooklyn Dodgers Banquet, where he gets to hang out with the aging heroes of Ebbets Field. But this year, a onetime scrub for the Dodgers is shot to death in the Citi Field press box. Soon afterward, a couple of similar shootings, of a restaurant cook on a subway platform and an accountant on the West Side Highway, suggest more than just isolated incidents of big city violence. Drawn into the case by family promises, Finley seeks a pattern to the shootings—even as they increasingly endanger him and those closest to him—in this fast-moving fourth novel in the compelling contemporary mystery series.
Most studies of water scarcity in the Middle East conclude that there is a significant risk of imminent conflict, even warfare, between states in the region. This book demonstrates that the evidence does not support this doom-laden prediction. Indeed, the authors show that although water scarcity has occasionally played a role in disputes in the Middle East, it has much more often promoted co-existence between adversaries. The reasoning behind this hypothesis is that water is too critical to be put at risk by warfare.
