When the Saints cut the lead to six with 14:23 left in the second half, Hallion answered by setting up junior center Emma Moretzsohn for an easy two as the shot clock wound down, then drove and dished to senior Adrian Budischak for a lay-up on the next possession. Hallion also hit the offensive glass to bang home a put-back less than a minute later.“Our team is so balanced. We’ve got so many people...

Circus-clown Kasper Krone provides Høeg with a highly entertaining protagonist as he performs stunt after stunt after stunt—even with his skull cracked open and a bullet wound clear through his midriff. But the novel is overly centered around him and preoccupied with proving to us just how cool he is: yes, he is a smooth talker; yes, he has sex appeal; yes, he is well-read; yes, he is a great acrobat; yes, he is a marvelous...
