32-year-old Madeline Boucher’s Grandfather instilled a love in the Boston Red Sox into her from an early age and increased that love by purchasing a local Independent League Baseball team, the Abington Armadillos.
After losing her corporate job in Boston, Madeline realizes her best option is to join the family baseball business. As the new “Social Media Director” for the team, Madeline attends her first business function and witnesses an argument between her brother Ben, and a strange man.
A few days later when walking the ballpark during her early morning hours, she finds the body of a man beaten to death with a baseball bat in the Visitor’s Dugout. It was the man her brother was arguing with at the party. Madeline is concerned that her brother would be considered a suspect. Through the local Detectives and Davis – the head of security for the ballpark she learns the victim is Christopher Dailey, a local baseball scout and prior felon.
When her brother is arrested and taken to the police station, she realizes she needs to figure out who the real culprit is, so her brother doesn’t take the fall for something she knows he didn’t do.
Hmm, this is a good story BUT for anyone without an interest in baseball it becomes a little overpowering (sorry!), to me this is a 3 star and I hope people in the US enjoy it more than me in the UK!
An Interview With A Character
What is your full name?
Madeline Boucher
What is your Profession?
Social Media Consultant for my favorite baseball team, the one my family owns! The Abington Armadillos.
What is your current favourite book or movie?
“Fever Pitch” – Even if Jimmy Fallon is now a Yankee fan (what?). It’s just a fun movie and I love seeing Boston on the screen!
What is your go to comfort book or movie?
I love a classic 80’s John Hughes movie. The Breakfast Club is obviously a classic, and even though its very dated, it still makes me happy to watch it.
If someone was to play you in a movie who would it be? OR what would be the character you would want to be in a book?
I think Maggie Lawson from the Psych TV series is most similar to me. She even starred in a baseball show. She’s a relatable actress and I think her qualities match up with mine well.
What is your ideal evening?
The team picking up a win, a glass of wine at home, and the Red Sox winning too!
