Beach Bum To Legend

The year is 2060, and field goals have gotten stupid.
The World Football League’s 80-yard rule awards four points instead of three for field goals kicked from eighty yards or beyond. Only two kickers on Earth can consistently make them. One is Dante Cruz, the greatest kicker alive. The other is a twenty-eight-year-old beach bum who doesn’t yet know it.
Zack Bach destroyed his knee playing soccer at twenty-four. For four years, he’s been hosting parties at a beach house in Encinitas, California, living off his dead father’s savings and pretending he doesn’t miss competing. Then a scout named Marc Tolliver shows up, watches Zack kick a football over eighty-five yards, and offers him a shot at the impossible.
Signed by the Las Vegas Outlaws for twenty-five million dollars a year, Zack enters a world he was never prepared for — a world of billion-dollar stadiums, ruthless rivalries, and a body held together by titanium screws and cortisone shots. His rookie season delivers a rivalry with Cruz that captivates the nation, a record-shattering field goal, and a devastating loss that leaves him broken on the turf.
Year Two pushes harder. The knee deteriorates—the pressure mounts. The owner’s daughter, Alex Kellerman, becomes impossible to ignore. And the man who has been a father to Zack since his own father died is running out of time.
From the beaches of California to the Super Bowl, The Find is a story about what it costs to be great — and what you lose along the way.
