W.D. Fielder's prim Virginia bred mother certainly wasn't looking for her seventeen-year-old's disgusting pinup magazines. But when she found them, while cleaning up his room, that rainy spring afternoon in 1989, she just kind of lost it. She had never raised a hand to either of the twins, William David or Wallace Daniel, but she did that day and paid for her lose of control with her life. Over the next decade, the late Edna Fielder's miscalculation fostered a flood of missing persons reports being lodged with the Barnwell County, Maryland Sheriff's department, but none of the almost three dozen missing women were ever found. The authorities, chagrined at being unable to solve even a single one of the cases, took the position that the girls had most likely just run away to see the world in Washington, D.C. or Baltimore or maybe even New York City. Then the newspaper publisher's daughter disappears while investigating the controversial Forest Vista land development project, located on one of the Fielder family properties, and all hell breaks loose. From the opulent corporate boardrooms of Washington, D.C. to the drug infested Baltimore slums and the rich rural farmlands in between, follow Jillian Hargrove and Architect Romulus Reynolds as they search for Reporter Chelsa Wellington and the other missing girls, even as the WD's track their every move. Initially reluctant to accede to his client's request to get involved in the search for the missing reporter, Reynolds is even more reticent in agreeing to let Jillian help. It's not just that she represents a group of neighbors, who want to stop his client's project. What really makes him uncomfortable is the possibility that she has become the kidnapper's next target. As their investigation reveals the magnitude of the twins' depravity, Rom's reservations are complicated by the fact that he has fallen passionately in love with Jillian. As their relationship deepens and the investigation accelerates, so do his fears that he will soon be coming face to face with the prospect of Jillian's death at the hands of the twins.

“A delight for baseball lovers” (Kirkus Reviews) and “one of the most significant baseball books of the year” (Bob Costas) Ahead of the Curve uses stories from baseball’s present and past to examine why we sometimes choose ignorance over information, and how tradition can trump logic. Forget batting average. Kill the “Win.” Say goodbye to starting pitchers. And please, please stop bunting. MLB Network anchor and commentator Brian Kenny provides “an excellent, entertaining read for the all-around baseball fan” (Library Journal) and shows how baseball has been revolutionized—not destroyed—by analytical thinking. Most people who resist logical thought in baseball preach “tradition” and “respecting the game.” But many of baseball’s traditions go back to the nineteenth century, when the pitcher’s job was to provide the batter with a ball he could hit and fielders played without gloves. Instead of fearing change, Brian Kenny wants fans to think critically, reject outmoded groupthink, and embrace the changes that have come with the sabermetric era. In his entertaining and enlightening book, Kenny discusses why the pitching win-loss record, the Triple Crown, fielding errors, and so-called battling titles should be ignored. He also points out how fossilized sportswriters have been electing the wrong MVP’s and ignoring legitimate candidates for the Hall of Fame; why managers are hired based on their looks; and how the most important position in baseball may just be “Director of Decision Sciences.” “Prepare to have your brain and your assumptions challenged. Guided by data and a deep love of the game, Brian Kenny takes a cutting-edge look at where baseball is and where it is going” (Tom Verducci, Sports Illustrated). Illustrated with unique anecdotes from those who have reshaped the game, Ahead of the Curve is “a great story about the game in the age of information and technology” (Billy Beane).
