Babe Ruth, one of America's greatest heroes, was a black man who had to hide his heritage, always under the stress and threat of losing his career. Yet he was constantly involved in scandal after scandalsexual trysts, illicit affairs, children out of wedlock, and a mob-related murder plot. While he was an embarrassment to his profession, he was a bigger-than-life superhero to fans young and old across the nation. The league's racist commissioner desperately wanted the Great Bambino suspended from the game, but the team owners needed Babe; he revolutionized the game and drew huge crowds. Seventy years later, a young, naive white attorney and his black female client struggle to unravel the mystery of her uncle's death. When Cammie discovers the long held secret of Babe's ancestry, she becomes the target of overzealous sports aficionados and businessmen attempting to save the image of a multibillion dollar sport and industry. A thrilling novel filled with historical facts, this mystery pairs two eras, creating a dramatic read.
