  When his parents' divorce escalates into a bitter custody battle, twelve-year-old Mark Conway moves in with his grandparents. He seems to be coping well with the change. He's become a star player on the school's soccer team and has made friends with everyone on the squad--and everyone, that is except the captain, who for some reason bears Mark a grudge. Mark figures it's better to ignore this unpleasant situation. But the pressure builds until one day, he loses his temper on the field, causing the team to nearly lose the game. Mark's rage surprises everyone, including himself. What is at the root of his anger--and will he be able to get it under control before it consumes him?
