Payback Time by Carl Deuker
Summary: Written from a sports journalist's point of view, this novel explores the world of high school football and an apparent scandal. Are the coach and a player trying to cheat their way into the big time? Or is there something more sinister happening? The truth will surprise everyone.
Thoughts: Not a bad sports book. I was surprised. I really liked Mitch and could relate to him in a lot of ways. I think kids could too. Sometimes the football play-by-play bored me, but I don't care that much so I skimmed over it. If you're into football, though, you'll love hearing about the yardage and zig-zag patterns, and all that jazz.
