Fielder’s ChoiceSt. Martin’s Press “Going into the sixth inning of the New York Mets’ game against the Milwaukee Braves on September 26, 1962, Jerry Fielder figured that the Mets still had a decent chance to win. As it turned out, that was the last mistake Fielder ever made.”
“Bowen lays out the narrative and sprinkles the clues with a
painstaking precision of detail that recalls early Ellery Queen
novels.”
-Chicago Sun-Times “I suspect if anyone
could demonstrate baseball’s redeeming social values, it would be
Michael Bowen, whose Fielder’s Choice is a crackerjack read.” “[Bowen] is concise,
ingenious, even brilliant as he mixes legalisms and the art of
scoring a baseball game into a fascinating mystery.” “Witty, urbane, and
tightly plotted…It’s enjoyable and leaves one hoping for more.”

Badger GameSt. Martin’s Press “At 10:42 P.M. on March 2, 1962, Katherine Colleen Ferguson arrived at the corner of Broadway and Seventh Avenue in New York City. She arrived there after a journey of 128 feet, straight down.”
“Agressively witty…Ingenious, well-paced, and inventively clued…A welcome entry in the field.”
“Bowen…proves he is a very clever write indeed…[an] intricate, tricky mystery…Be on the alert for puns and underlying clues."
“A clever killing, hanky-panky in the art world, colorful characters, wry notes on life in 1962 and today, a rich plot.”
