Rocket Arm

#1 New York Times bestselling author and former NFL player Tim Green is back with an action-packed novel about a football player with big dreams whose life changes forever when he attends an athletic boarding school. Now available in paperback!

Zeno Dubois might be young, but he has a remarkable ability. He’s a quarterback with a “rocket arm”—he’s able to throw a football for incredible distances.

His dad wants Zeno to succeed, no matter what, so when a coach comes to recruit Zeno to an athletic boarding school, his dad immediately signs Zeno up.

The school is intense, but Zeno quickly bonds with one of his coaches, Coach Lamb. However, when Zeno tells a reporter that Coach Lamb uses unusual healing methods, he finds himself at the center of a media storm. While trying to keep a low profile, Zeno stumbles across a mystery and starts to go out nightly to uncover the truth. With his energy down and the media circling, will Zeno be able to perform in the biggest game of the season?

Under Pressure: • Zeno is a kid, but he’s already a talented football player with promising abilities. Tim shows how young players are forced to navigate a complicated terrain of expectations while trying to improve their skills. Down, Set, Hike!: • Of course, this is a Tim Green book, so football—and all the action that comes with it--is a central element! Tim is great at spotlighting the epic highs and lows of being a football player, both on and off the field. Epic Whodunit: • Zeno gets roped into solving a twisty mystery, and every step of the process is an adventure. But is Zeno actually solving a mystery or getting himself entangled in a lie more complicated than he could ever fathom?
