Pity the Reluctant Fan

Martha Kemm Landes

When Pity is invited to go with her boyfriend on a bus tour of East Coast Major League Baseball parks, she is reluctant to go because she doesn't like bus rides and worse, she dislikes sports. But she agrees to go along to spend quality time with Mike and explore the exciting big cities.


Unfortunately, Mike must leave the tour for a family emergency, leaving Pity to attend the games surrounded by extreme sports fans. When curious misfortune befalls several people on the tour, Pity senses foul play. With something more interesting to focus on than the games, she goes to bat for her new sport-loving friends and investigates her suspicions. In her typical style, Pity slides into trouble everywhere she goes, often causing more problems than she fixes.


Do we pity the miserable spectator, or will she hit a home run and solve the mystery?
