Center Cut: A Jack Austin Mystery (Hardscrabble Books)

"Imagine a wise-cracking Tiger Woods as Sherlock Holmes," says bestselling novelist Tess Gerritsen. "That's the sort of lovable hero John Corrigan has created in this new mystery series." Corrigan once again captures life--and death--on the PGA Tour in his new mystery featuring Jack Austin, native of Maine and professional golfer.
After narrowly missing his first tournament win at the conclusion of Snap Hook, Jack has begun a new season in the worst slump of his career. Since he now has a family to support, the slump couldn't come at a worse time. But as Jack battles back to his usual level of play, his friend Grant Ashley faces a more serious problem.

Grant's new wife, the young and beautiful Lynne is also abrasive, unpleasant . . . and missing. Her husband is clearly more concerned than he wants to admit, but he refuses to call the police. Jack and his friend Perkins, security consultant to the Tour, are determined to look for the missing woman, but it is an investigation destined to lead to secrets, betrayals, lies, and ultimately murder.

"Corrigan commands a wealth of technical detail to make Jack's every round vivid and exciting," said Kirkus Reviews of Snap Hook. "Highly recommended for golfers, golf widows and widowers, and everybody who's ever wondered what the fuss is about."
