Deep ZoneA Football Genius NovelNOW AVAILABLE! In the deep zone, even the very best player can have a nearly impossible time beating a foe who's ready and waiting... Troy White can predict a football play before it happens. Star quarterback on his state football team, Troy's a natural for the Seven-on-Seven tournament that's being held at the Super Bowl in Miami. With any luck, his "Football Genius" will also be working for Atlanta Falcons on that big day! Ty Lewis is a wide receiver with exceptional speed. His brother Thane who plays for the Jets, urges Ty to get on a Seven-on-Seven team, saying his running prowess will make him a winner. From the moment the two football champs cross paths, Troy and Ty begin to size one another up. Troy is suspicious of Ty's interest in his friend, Tate, while Ty worries his speed will never be a match for Troy's game smarts. But when the two rivals find themselves somehow tangled in the same dangerous web of deceit, they discover that they have more in common than their love of football—and that their pasts are more entwined than either could ever have imagined.

Praise"NFL insider Green brings together his two heroes—Ty (Football Hero, 2008) and Troy (Football Champ, 2009)—in this gridiron mystery focused on teen football phenoms... The football insights are the best part, as both professional games and seven-on-seven play are described in satisfying detail." —Kirkus "The best part of this story, for football fans, will be detailed descriptions of games, mostly of nail-biting endings where winning hangs on a surprise play... the strength of this series lies in the appeal of an insider's view of the football business..." —Children's Literature Reviews  |
