(Book)

In the firest of the series, Deal Breaker, Myro is poised on the edge of the big time with talented rookie quarterback Christian Steele. But when Christian gets a phone call from a former girlfriend--a woman who everyone, including the police, believes is dead-- the deal starts to turn sour. Suddenly Myron is plunged into a baffling mystery of sex and blackmail, as he tries to unravel the truth about a family's tragedy, a woman's secret, and a man's lies. He'll soon learn, however, that while image and talent may make you rich, the truth can get you killed. In Drop Shot, tennis has been very good to Myron--he's representing two of the hottest young players in the game: Valerie Simpson, a star with a troubled past who's now on the verge of a comeback, and Duane Richwood, primed to take his first grand slam tournament. But then Valerie is murdered in broad daylight at the U.S. Open--and Duane becomes the prime suspect. Now, with a dirty U.S. Senator, a jealous mother, and the mob all drawn into the case, Myron's got a whole new match to win!
