    • 1/5
      Emma Lathen books are wonderful. These readings are dreadful: flat, error-filled, dull, and badly recorded.
    • 4/5
      The Sloan Guaranty Trust, where John Putnam Thatcher is a senior executive, is sponsoring telecast for the feeble New York Huskies hockey team, which goes on an unexpected winning streak until a millionaire hockey fan is found shot in the LaGuardia parking lot after welcoming the team home.
    • 4/5
      Substance: Why are so many people fighting over a hockey team? Thatcher follows the money to find out.A great slice-of-life from NYC in the 1970s, and an education in financial affairs.Style: Sometimes Lathen's wit is a bit too oblique, and her characters sometimes seem to be refugees from a sit-com, but the clues are fair and the deduction legitimate. PG only because most kids can't follow the finance, and wouldn't want to; never embarrassing.
    • 5/5
      The Sloan decides to branch out from its usual sponsorship of the ballet into sponsoring hockey telecasts. At first, this looked like a nice, safe idea. But when the team begins winning, and egos on the team begin to flare, it ends in murder. John Putnam Thatcher must try to clear this mess up before the Sloan gets a black eye.cmb
