From the Inside Flap:
years after his partner in a fledging oil company cheated him out of the CEO spot by sinking a hole-in-one blindfolded, a still-disgruntled Texan calls a grudge match. A thirteen-year-old boy, Billy Hemphill, is the caddie. Through his eyes a remarkable, boisterous, and eccentric cast of characters walk the nine holes with the two players and learn some lasting lessons about what really matters. Caught up in the vicious match, Billy is immersed in a world of liars, cheats, and hustlers as he searches for life's simple truths and for the father he's never had.
Before the final shot of this thirty year saga of betrayal and lost love, young Billy will witness the magic, miracles, redemption and revenge that make the game of golf one of life's finest lessons.
