What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

Danny Walker is one of the best players the team has; in fact, his adoptive parents and sister consider him a shoo-in for the shortstop position on the All-Star team. But that was before Tammy Aiken, the opposition’s new “hot dog” shortstop, showed up. Danny has a sinking feeling the newcomer is as good as he is–a feeling her stats back up. And yet something besides her threatening to steal the All-Star spot from him is bothering him. The more he watches her, the more he becomes convinced that he’s seen her–or someone like her–play before. Why does Tammy seem so familiar?
