About this listen

Jack Ross is lonely. It feels like he has lost everything that gave his life meaning. His wife Sherry died 19 months ago. He retired from practicing law nine months ago. Sports injuries forced him to give up playing basketball and tennis. He is lost without the love of his life, meaningful work, and the outlet of playing sports to distract him from the pain of his loss.

When his former law partner invites him to try out a new game with the silly name of pickleball, Jack is skeptical, but he agrees to give it a try. He was on the varsity tennis team at Butler University, so he quickly picks up the new game and loves it. No longer depressed, Jack feels so rambunctious a romance blossoms with a delightfully attractive member of the pickleball group.

But there is a surprising twist in the story when Jack's life and the lives of his new friends and love interest become embroiled in an international conspiracy. A mysterious man in black begins to stalk them with murderous intent.

It's a pickleball soap opera! The FBI, CIA, Al-Qaeda, Taliban, US Marines and Air Force, British Special Forces, spies, and terrorists all play a part in the drama that entangles the pickleball players and spans the globe from Ohio to Afghanistan and Chicago to Pakistan. It has romance, murder, and pickleball!

Not for me

I find it difficult to give a fair review because this book just was not for me. There was far too much (for me) explanation of the game and its rules. I could see if it were relevant to the story, but it was not. Also, far too much was left hanging. I understand (now!) that this to be a series, but I dislike loose threads.

Very fun read!

Of course I loved the story line of Jack being introduced to pickleball! I also enjoyed the depth of the characters and of the mysterious back plot that came to an explosive confrontation in the final chapter.
