Про цю електронну книгу
A compelling and all too relatable story of teens waking up to the harsh realities of their beloved sport while learning what true friendship really means.
“Paul Volponi has done it again! Great story, laser-perfect characterizations, and a plot that makes you think.”—Chris Crutcher
Rucker Park—a place where basketball’s greatest pro players go up against street legends. Best friends Mackey and J.R. have waited their whole lives to win the basketball tournament here. But when the day of an important game arrives, J.R. is fatally stabbed. While Mackey didn’t wield the knife, he feels responsible. Now he has a score to settle, but the killer is watching his every move.
Mackey is determined to finish the final game of the Rucker Park Tournament on his own terms. The question is, can he do it?
