This is Kasselman’s first novel, yet he writes like a seasoned pro.If you like the intrigue of court and the workings political working of the DA’s office mixed with real character development along the lines of the Butch Karp and Marlene Ciampi series by Robert Tanenbaum you are in for a double treat.  A Pitch For Justice is a great book and you have found a new author to follow.This book will delight you all the way from the realism of the set-up, the characters that build the story, and the twists and turns bringing this story to some unexpected places.  Is it murder?  That is the question that many people try to figure out – and I found myself wondering the same thing.  Given that I knew exactly what happened it is a testament to the excellence of the writing that I was wondering if a legal murder or manslaughter had happened.  This is a suspense sports psychology novel of the best type.  You’re gonna love it.You will learn a lot about baseball – the nitty-gritty insider stuff that only real players or die-hard fans understand.  What I found amazing is that while I am not particularly a strong baseball fan, the ‘education’ about the why the game is played as it is, was fascinating because it is so well told.My only hope is that Mr. Kasselman publishes his next novel soon.
