A Soccer Novel
The strong young soccer players in At the Death have more on their minds and in their hearts than soccer, though team spirit is everything and embraces competition, friendship, pride in personal achievement and sports abilities, and how to face a worthy opponent.
But there's more at stake here than beating odds or opposing teams, for At the Death takes soccer one step beyond in moving into the afterlife with a game that holds social and spiritual ramifications for all its players.
The school team faces some of its biggest sports and life challenges and learns from the choices its members make about their friendships, strategies, and plays. What's the secret of a perfectly played game, and what happens when a team headed for their ultimate success faces their greatest test on another plane of existence?
As the Hampshire United team comes to understand the true nature of life's meaning, soccer fans with all levels of familiarity with the sport receive a vivid story of this team's greatest victory.
