Reviews: Be The One Praise for April Smith's novel, BE THE ONE.
"No one can think about baseball
all the time. So when you take time off from that this summer, savor
this fine, complex, fast-paced novel about a hard-living female scout
for the Los Angeles Dodgers, a talented Dominican prospect, and lots of
skullduggery." "Peopled with characters as
perfectly rendered as a hundred mile an hour fastball, BE THE ONE
is a brilliant, original crime novel. As the web of deceptions, lies,
and threats increased, I could not stop turning the pages. April Smith
has hit this one out of the park." "BE THE ONE is
wonderfully told, powerfully exciting, and entirely engrossing." "April Smith writes wonderfully
well, with vivid images and a captivating rhythm. Both Cassidy Sanderson
and her world are engaging and unique." "This book has everything: sex,
drugs, and baseball. The non-stop action proves that Smith's success
with North of Montana was no fluke." |
"As a fan of baseball, quality
suspense writing, and the work of April Smith, I loved BE THE ONE
-- it has an ingenious plot, a gripping pace and winning characters.
It's really a fine book."
