About this ebook

What would you do if your son faced a monster? What if your son, an unlikely star quarterback, was to line up against the most feared college linebacker ever seen? If this was to be your child's only realistic shot at glory in a hamstrung life? What if you had the chance to do something about it?
These questions have brought divorced architect Ben Gerrard to act, no matter the consequences. Standing at the cliff's edge, Gerrard chose to kidnap a beast of a man and commit the new Crime of the Century. But is it victory?
As the clock ticks down to the Big Game, Gerrard must reconcile his decision among perception, history, truth and guile. A surprising love interest appears, turning his quiet world on its side. Further complicating matters are a one-time friend-turned-problem, a genetic time bomb and an unforeseen shadowy menace - the danger any man in his shoes would face.
What will happen before kickoff? What will be the aftermath? Who is the linebacker MacReynolds Galtier - and who is Ben for taking him? Will he stand by and watch the world fall?

Author

Justin Edison

When Justin Edison isn't bumbling his way through this or that adventure (fatherhood, cooking, soccer, hiking, marriage, websites) he's busy dreaming up or drafting a story. His interests usually put characters into bizarre situations, from being a kidnapper (anti-hero) to a female sharpshooter caught up in a war (on various planets) to an innocent man running for his life through the Colombian jungle. Certainly, love or 'normal' things must be on the horizon. Then again... Justin's been writing for close to 30 years, but he'd only count the last 15 as far as producing 'real work' that someone might actually want to read. His novels include "Watching the World Fall," "The Churning," "Endgame (Woman At War #1)," and "Tempest Road." Check out www.justinedisonnovels.com for more information. Comedic musings, short stories (some not-so-bad) and poetry (okay, definitely bad) can be found at www.jedisonwriting.com.
