He was young and talented—a golfing phenom with the whole world in his hands...and a killer on his trail...
He made the whole world go weak at the knees. With his skill, grace, and innocence, young golfing phenom Buddy Martin even won over the cynical press corps.

And what they find is a story more amazing than the myth itself: a story of love, loss, and murder....
