Finally, a golf tale that captures the imagination of every golfer! The story races across the globe as it takes amateur golfer JW Franklin from his home in Nashville, Tennessee to Tokyo, Japan to the Persian Gulf War, and back full circle to Nashville. Along the way, he befriends Peter, a former PGA Tour player and reclusive golf guru who is hiding out in Japan from the mob, because of some youthful indiscretions.
Peter mentors JW with real-world lessons about golf and life. Stories about his earlier life in the pressure-packed underworld of high-stakes golf gambling, plus tales of the greatest golf hustler who ever lived, the Fatman, help JW take his game to a whole new level, keeping the reader spellbound throughout their entire journey.
Twenty years after he and Peter first meet, JW finds himself in a surreal situation, fighting to make the cut at the Masters. Can JW use what he learned from Peter to hold on to his dream or will he collapse under the extreme pressure of golf’s most revered tournament?
