It is 1947, the year Jackie Robinson breaks major-league baseball's color barrier by playing for the Brooklyn Dodgers - and changes the world. This is the story of that season, as told through the eyes of a difficult, brooding, and wounded man named Joseph Burke. A World War II veteran, Burke is hired by Dodgers manager Branch Ricky to guard Robinson. While Burke shadows Robinson, a man of tremendous strength and character suddenly thrust into the media spotlight, the bodyguard must also face some hard truths of his own in a world where the wrong associations can prove fatal. Part novel, part history, part memory, Double Play is an astonishing creation from the Grand Master of Mystery.
