About this listen
***PRAISE FOR THE GUN PEDERSEN SERIES***
COMEBACK:
“A well-written, fast-reading thriller. . . . It’s got everything.”
—Minneapolis St. Paul Magazine
“Comeback is so good, you want to sit down and read it all at once. It’s got love and shame and money and the Minnesota woods and lakes, and dark mystery, and a reluctant hero, and it’s written with humor and passion.”
—Garrison Keillor
SWING:
“Solidly entertaining.”
—ALA Booklist
“In Swing, the plot twists as unpredictably as a hangman’s rope. Swing has muscle (and heart, too).”
—Alfred Hitchcock’s Mystery Magazine
“[A] sure hit.”
—R.D. Zimmerman, author of Deadfall in Berlin
STRIKE:
“Compelling.”
—Publishers Weekly
SACRIFICE:
“Sacrifice is the best novel I’ve read this year. Not just the best mystery, but the best novel, period.”
—Jeremiah Healy, author of the John Francis Cuddy series
“Sharp and engaging!”
—Minneapolis Star Tribune
THE SINNERS’ LEAGUE:
“[A] revelation . . .”
—Booklist

Gunsten Søren Pedersen knew about baseball and death.
