The Case of the Pitcher's Pendant: A Billibub Baddings Mystery Chicago, 1930, and following the financial calamity of Black Thursday, Billi is doing everything he can to keep his business afloat. The change in seasons, though, brings him a case that appears to be a true blessing from The Fates. Chicago Cubs Manager Joe McCarthy suspects something fishy with the Baltimore Mariners, a new team in the league, and he’s hiring Billi to look into it. What appears to be the dream job — being paid to research and attend baseball games — turns out to be a nightmare as he discovers one of the Nine Talismans of Acryonis somewhere in play at Wrigley. And wouldn’t you know it — with two outs and bases loaded, the heavy hitter of the Underworld “Big Al” gets early parole from The Big Dugout and is swinging two in the Batter’s Circle. Tee Morris Tee has done podcasts of his books, Morevi, Billibub Baddings and the Case of the Singing Sword, and many others.

Testimonials "Thanks to the Tee's love for his fans, I have had a chance to read 'The Case of the Pitchers Pendant'. It is every bit as engaging as the first book, filling with the clever wit, puns, and eye rolling humor I have come to expect. It will be a wonderful addition to my personal library." — C. Derico, Amazon.com "The Case of the Pitchers Pendant is an absolutely excellent book. Tee Morris weaves an elegant and entertaining story that you wont be able to put down. Having read the first Billibub book, I was pleased to find that this book is just as clever and witty as The Case of the Singing Sword. Whilst you can, most certainly, enjoy this book without reading The Case of the Singing Sword first, I would highly recommend getting both books. You won't regret it! " — Stephen Killbride, Amazon.com "Imagine if J. R. R. Tolkien and Phillip Marlowe collaborated on a novel- a little bit of epic fantasy in the background, set against a city dealing with rampant crime and economic catastrophe. That's what Tee Morris has done with the Billibub Baddings mystery series — you might call it fantasy-mystery-noir, if you really have to put a genre title to it. I've read books where the plot pulled me before. Pitcher's Pendant pushes you. It drives you, you simply HAVE to know what happens next, and every chapter ends with a good cliffhanger. Morris knows how to capture an audience, and this book does exactly that. And don't even get me started about the ending, which demands a sequel." — Warren Kelly, Blog Critics
