"When Jewel's husband, Russell, a center fielder for the D.C. Diamonds, buys Two-Mile's glove at auction for the exalted sum of $15,000, Jewel fumes at the extravagance. Her lavish home is already filled with unattractive old gloves. Why does he want another, especially one that comes with a five-figure price tag? No slouch Jewel, she jumps at the opportunity when shady character Anthony Graves arrives at her front door and offers to purchase the glove. He claims it's for his sick child, but Jewel's not really convinced Anthony's countenance shines forth with paternal concern." "End of story; except that Jewel switches gloves on her buyer and pockets the profit. Now she must deal with both an angry husband and an extremely unhappy, and possibly dangerous, would-be purchaser." "Why is Graves, or the man he works for, so desperate to acquire this particular glove? The answer must lie with Two-Mile himself, who long ago disappeared into the sunset. But Jewel has a clue where to find him. Together, Jewel and Dee Sweet, who's also having some troubles on the home front with second-baseman-husband Mark, set off on a high-spirited search that takes the women to Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, the Caribbean, and points in between, with the bad guys always in close pursuit."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
