| Publisher Description: When Tommy Largent was five years old, he saw his father kill a man right before his eyes. If not for his mother's bravery and strength that night, they both would have surely perished as well. Now, six years later, Tommy isn't just bullied by the other kids in town, he's an outcast, branded forever from his father's crime. He seeks an escape in football, the game that he loves, and despite his short stature, was born to play. But his mother forbids him from playing, and even if she allowed it, the local coach won't even give him a tryout. So he resorts to playing in secret, tossing passes that only he can catch, and booting punts that will never be returned. But when he meets Flash Jackson, a local legend and former Pro ballplayer, he hatches a plan. Maybe if he could get Flash to coach him, to teach him the game, he could get good enough that the coach and even his mom would have to give him a chance to play. It won't be easy, Flash is now a recluse and hates the game that he once loved because it destroyed his body and broke his spirit. But even if Flash agrees to coach Tommy he will have to be more than his mentor; he will have to protect Tommy as well. You see Rick Largent has gotten a huge break and is now out of prison, and he has one thing on his mind, to finish what he started. |
