Payback Time
Through the eyes of a distinctly non-athletic protagonist—a fat high school journalist named Mitch—veteran sports novelist Deuker reveals the surprising truth behind a mysterious football player named Angel. When Angel shows up Lincoln High, he seems to have no past—or at least not one he is willing to discuss. Though Mitch gets a glimpse of Angel's incredible talent off the field, Angel rarely allows himself to shine on the field. Is he an undercover cop, wonders Mitch? Or an ineligible player? In pursuit of a killer story, Mitch decides to find out just who this player is and what he's done. In the end, the truth surprises everyone.

ReplyDeleteI read the whole book, It was AMAZING!!!! The ending was the best part about it. I would of never thought Angel ran away just because a gang was after him. At first I thought he came to Lincoln High so he can find "druggies." I was worried at the part where they were at the championship game, I thought Angel was going to get shot until "Mitch" slashed the tire. I highly suggest this book.
