This is a great book.
I loved the characters. It pulled me in from the very beginning. Its a great mystery story and keeps you guessing who the bad guys are threw out the book. Its not an easy book to figure out way before its all revealed.

i was on edge the whole time, from the first page until the last i had white knuckles and big eyes. This is a MUST read.

Sid Weston had a calculated plan to be the world’s best in soccer, till a defendant
changed that. Seattle wanted him as a mentor to young rising stars. it was good place for him, and to move on. An errand for his wife ended at the bank, leaving his eight year old son. He knew his wife wanted the fame and money she never got.
Cal remember a recent conversation with Westin, how he felt edgy that someone was watching and following him.
Cal asked to write about a indictment to a Dr sending large amount of drugs to someone, and athletes were also involved.

All the money out there is not going to help you

An inside look at the game if soccer. Sports are so competitive, that not being in top physically you will not play the game. Drugs are not the way to succeed.
