Synopsis:<\/strong>

From New York Times bestselling author Stephen King comes the haunting story of Blockade Billy, the greatest Major League baseball player to be erased from the game.<\/p>\n

Even the most die-hard baseball fans don\u2019t know the true story of William \u201cBlockade Billy\u201d Blakely. He may have been the greatest player the game has ever seen, but today no one remembers his name. He was the first--and only--player to have his existence completely removed from the record books. Even his team is long forgotten, barely a footnote in the game\u2019s history.<\/p>\n

Every effort was made to erase any evidence that William Blakely played professional baseball, and with good reason. Blockade Billy had a secret darker than any pill or injection that might cause a scandal in sports today. His secret was much, much worse... and only Stephen King, the most gifted storyteller of our age, can reveal the truth to the world, once and for all.<\/p>\nGet the Book:<\/strong> Amazon<\/a>\r\n
