Last Shot: Mystery at the Final Four (the Sports Beat, 1) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780553494600)

New York Times bestselling sportswriter John Feinstein exposes the real "March Madness"--behind the scenes at the Final Four basketball tournament.

When Stevie wins a writing contest for aspiring sports journalists, his prize is a press pass to the Final Four in New Orleans. While exploring the Superdome, he overhears a plot to throw the championship game. With the help of fellow contest winner Susan Carol, Stevie has just 48 hours to figure out who is blackmailing one of the star players . . . and why.

John Feinstein has been praised as "the best writer of sports books in America today" (The Boston Globe), and he proves it again in this fast-paced novel.
