Publisher's Summary

Off the Fairway is a touching family saga with a backstory reminiscent of the laugh-out-loud golf movies of the 1980s.

What would you do if a man who saved two lives, only to become disabled in the process, was banished from his land and his community for that same disability?

What if that land was your land? What if that community was your community? What if that man was your father?

John Russell is a decorated veteran of World War II. Awarded medals of heroism for saving the lives of two men during a ferocious battle, he is home and happily running a classic golf course dedicated in his honor. John's son, Bart, a bright and fun-loving teenager with dreams of running the operation himself one day, works there too.

But dreams don't always come true and some memories are worse than others. John begins to suffer disabling recollections of the battle and his "friends" begin to notice. Financial disaster, complete with lawsuits and likely bankruptcy soon follow.

His own dreams shattered and his father in ruins, Bart faces his own crisis. Meanwhile, something deep is at work, both pushing and pulling him, and it is more important than his life goals and bigger than his dreams could ever imagine.

Set among the beautiful rolling hills of a Pennsylvania country club, Off the Fairway follows the development of a carefree teen as he plays, cries, fights, and grows into a man of integrity, leans the truth about power and discovers what character, honor, and respect really mean.
