by Blake Jon (Author)
This is the true beautiful game. There's nothing like the crack of the cue ball on the blac k...the smooth roll across the baize...the silent drop into the pocket. Jamie may reckon himself a bit of a Ronnie O'Sullivan, but he's just gone and snookered himself. He's bet junior snooker champion Colin Dobson (alias Creeping Death) [pound]100 that he can beat him! Things get more complicated. Jamie's long-absent, hard-living dad's just crashed back on the scene like a cue ball smashing into the pack. But could this be the break that Jamie needs? Maybe "the living legend" can teach him what it takes to be a winner. Maybe. Then again, maybe not.
