Game. Set. Murder.

Temperamental tennis star Roderick McAdam stands on the threshold of claiming the world number one ranking. But, just days before McAdam is due to arrive in Melbourne for the Australian Open, his trussed-up dead body is found in a seedy hotel room.

Detective Jack Lisbon and his team find themselves entangled in the perplexing case. And, as Jack delves deeper into the circumstances surrounding McAdam's bizarre murder and his unexpected detour to far North Queensland, he uncovers a web of deceit, violence, and shocking revelations that threaten to rock the tennis world to its core.

With public pressure mounting and tennis officials demanding answers, Jack and his team must navigate a treacherous landscape of lies and betrayal to unravel the truth behind the young star's untimely demise.

If you’re a fan of fast-paced thrillers by crime-writing legends James Patterson, David Baldacci and Ian Rankin, the gripping fifth book in Blair Denholm’s The Fighting Detective series will be just what the detective ordered.
