Annotation: At 17, Star Defenseman Brian Thomas McPhee likes his chances of making it as a pro hockey player. Yet a string of recent "accidents" threatens to knock his team out of the playoffs and ruin his promising career. B. T. McPhee wonders how many "accidents" can happen. But it's not a good time for questions. Not in the spotlight of high-pressure hockey. Not when the team needs him most. But unless the questions are answered, the team's season and his promising career will surely end.

Publisher Description:
At 17, star defenseman Craig McElhaney likes his chances of making it as a pro hockey player. Yet, a string of recent accidents threatens to knock his team out of the playoffs and ruin his promising career. Craig has begun to question how many accidents can happen before they become more than a coincidence. But it's not a good time for questions. Not in the spotlight of high-pressure hockey. Not when the team needs him most. And not when he has some important lessons to learn about life. For Craig, however, there is no choice. Unless the questions are answered, the team's season and his promising career will surely end.
