Glory never dies.
Neely Crenshaw was the best quarterback ever to play for legendary high school football team, the Messina Spartans. But fifteen years later, with his glory days far behind him, the man everyone remembers is Coach Eddie Rake.
When Neely returns home to bury the dying Coach Rake, he's not alone. Many Spartans veterans want to pay tribute to the man who moulded them.
But stories soon emerge that could tarnish the coach's legacy.
As Neely struggles to come to terms with his explosive relationship with the coach and the choices he made as a young man, the stakes have never been higher. . .
