So what's missing?

As his playing career winds down Josh is given a last opportunity to prove himself a complete player. But first he must maneuver around his mother's prohibition, survive a game played in a hurricane, then gain the respect of skeptical teammates before winning nationwide internet fame for the team and redemption for himself.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

H.G. Field is the author of a previous novel, DOWN BY TWO. Years of reading, marketing and distributing books convinced him that writing them shouldn't be very hard. Several years and two novels later, he understands just how mistaken that notion was. But the goal remains unchanged: Arrange words, sentences, and paragraphs in ways that sustain a reader's interest. Or, as Elmore Leonard, a true inspiration, has said: "Leave out the parts that readers want to skip." Mr. Field grinds away at this endless task in his home on a peninsula above canyons and ocean in San Diego, CA.
