A fresh cover look and series title for bestselling author John Feinstein's middle grade sports mysteries. Here's The Sports Beat scoop on the U.S. Open Tennis Tournament.

New York Times bestselling author John Feinstein goes behind closed doors at the US Open . . .

When teen sportswriters Stevie Thomas and Susan Carol Anderson score press passes to the U.S. Open they expect drama. They expect blistering serves, smashed returns and fierce competition. What they don't expect is kidnapping.

Russian tennis phenom Nadia Symanova was supposed to win it all, but she never even made it onto the court. Now the whole stadium is in an uproar trying to find her. Can Stevie and Susan Carol get to Nadia before it's too late?
