Killing Dreams and Getting Reviews

Review of Dream Killer by Mike Baldwin

by Kim Kash       Reviewer Rating: 2 Stars      

Veteran sports writer Mike Baldwin has written a novel aimed at baseball fans and those with affection for the Midwest and for sleep-away summer camps (and really, who’s not a fan of those?) His heroine, sports agent extraordinaire Veronica Townsend, is a beautiful woman (pillowy lips, red nails, strappy sandals, the works) who hollers at the TV when the game’s on in a sports bar and consistently breaks the speed limit in her BMW sports car. She is determined not to let the beloved Camp Dream Catcher be ruined by scandal and murder, and to that end chases all over Kansas tracking down clues and piecing together fragments of the sordid death of a handsome but troubled lifeguard.
