Double Shifting

Written by Frank Scalise

Narrated by Jerry Sciarrio

Everything should be great for young hockey player Sam Parker. He has just turned twelve. He plays center on The Rockets, the team he’s been on since Mites. His best friend, Jill, is the goal tender. And he just had his birthday.

So why isn’t he happy?

It’s simple–because his parents are still getting a divorce.

The bombshell news that landed last fall has a daily impact on Sam. His life is changing–in more ways than just this–and he struggles to keep on top of everything. School, friends, shuttling between his house and his dad’s new apartment… it all seems too much. He feels like he’s double-shifting and doesn’t know if he’s coming or going.

So, Sam devises a plan to get his parents back together. All it will take is becoming a star player. What could go wrong?

A lot, it turns out.
