L&O: Did an athlete pay a goon to break her rival's bones?
Description
Tennis star Korey Burke will miss the tournament after an unidentified attacker breaks her wrist with a club. Logan and Briscoe rule out her obsessed fan and turn their attention to Korey's main rival and her burly boyfriend. Kincaid wonders if her demanding father (John Heard) might have set up the assault to boost her image and endorsement money. But when Stone obtains Korey's diary, it's clear the athlete has been looking for a way to get out of professional sports.
We're talking about Law & Order season 4 episode 21 "Doubles." Our returning guest is Leigh Bardugo, best-selling author of Shadow and Bone and The Familiar.
This episode is inspired by the 1994 attack on figure skater Nancy Kerrigan.
