BALL GAME

A must read for all golfers and golfing widows. A story of intrigue at a golf club written with humour and warmth.
When tragedy suddenly strikes high flying banker and avid golfer James Ball he looks for a less stressful existence. But if he hoped to find such a thing when he takes on the job as secretary of the Winthwaite golf club he is very much mistaken. The chairman and club captain are at loggerheads. The caterer can’t cook: the professional doesn’t teach and the greens are riddled with disease! But these problems sink into insignificance when he uncovers a fraudulent business deal that will close down the club for ever. He has two choices. He can go back to his career in the merchant bank. Or he can risk everything and try to save the club.
Against all banking instincts he gets emotionally involved. His journey takes him to London, Uruguay and Ireland. The stakes are high: his personal fortune.
