Rebel Glory

by Sigmund Brouwer

tagged: hockey, mysteries & detective stories, non-classifiable
Description

At 17, star defenseman Craig McElhaney likes his chances of making it as a pro hockey player.

Yet, a string of recent "accidents" threatens to knock Craig's team out of the playoffs and ruin his promising career. Craig has begun to question how many "accidents" can happen before they become more than a coincidence. But it's not a good time for questions. Not in the spotlight of high-pressure hockey. Not when the team needs him most. And not when he has some important lessons to learn about life. For Craig, however, there is no choice. Unless the questions are answered, the team's season and his promising career will surely end.

This short novel is a high-interest, low-reading level book for middle-grade readers who are building reading skills, want a quick read or say they don’t like to read!
