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.

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.
