Product Description:
#1 New York Times bestselling author Sandra Brown is back with a gripping story of obsession and its deadly consequences.
After five long years in federal prison, Griff Burkett is a free man. But the disgraced Cowboys quarterback can never return to life as he knew it before he was caught cheating. In a place where football is practically a religion, Griff committed a cardinal sin, and no one is forgiving.
Foster Speakman, owner and CEO of SunSouth Airlines, and his wife, Laura, are a golden couple. Successful and wealthy, they lived a charmed life before fate cruelly intervened and denied them the one thing they wanted most -- a child. It's said that money can't buy everything. But it can buy a disgraced football player fresh out of prison and out of prospects.
The job Griff agrees to do for the Speakmans demands secrecy. But he soon finds himself once again in the spotlight of suspicion. An unsolved murder comes back to haunt him in the form of his nemesis, Stanley Rodarte, who has made Griff's destruction his life's mission. While safeguarding his new enterprise, Griff must also protect those around him, especially Laura Speakman, from Rodarte's ruthlessness. Griff stands to gain the highest payoff he could ever imagine, but cashing in on it will require him to forfeit his only chance for redemption...and love.
Griff is now playing a high-stakes game, and at the final whistle, one player will be dead.
Play Dirty is Sandra Brown's wildest ride yet, with hairpin turns of plot all along the way. The clock is ticking down on a fallen football star, who lost everything because of the way he played the game. Now his future -- his life -- hinges on one last play.

I've read most, if not all of Sandra Brown's books and this one was boring. It finally got interesting around the last 100 pages. I loaned it to a co-worker who felt the same way.

My wife and I have enjoyed her novels until now. Normally one can identify with Sandra Brown's protagonists, but here it is insulting to expect that the lead female, who is essentially running a multibillion-dollar airline, would be suddenly struck with the "wimpy stupids" when her husband is murdered. While I am sure there are ladies who would not know any better, this person's actions were so illogical that I simply could not stand reading any further.

I'm a big fan of books by Sandra Brown, so was very excited to pick this one up. I was very disappointed by it, and actually only finished reading it with hopes that it would get better. It would have helped if the characters were a little more likeable towards the beginning of the book, instead of leaving some of their few redeemable qualities to be revealed only at the end. The plot was very poorly put together and while there were some surprises thrown at you throughout the book, they almost seemed forced...
Having always had an interest in writing, it is disappointing to me see a "best-seller" author turn out a book that isn't up to their usual high standards.

I haven't finished this book yet, about 3/4 of the way through it right now, but all the time I'm reading I have the feeling I've read it before!
Has anybody else felt like this?
I do re-read all of my books and enjoy them each time, but this is really bugging me since it is supposed to be a new book.
Rated by buyers -
I had a really hard time getting into this book and found the very first half really dragged and had trouble retaining my interest. It picked up in the second half, although most of what went on was so ridiculous that you had to suspend any kind of belief to get through it.
Add in a bunch of characters that were never really developed or very likeable, and you have an okay read that's definitely not Sandra Brown's best work.
