Step This Way

Tully Greenwood figured prominently in the first two books in this series, "Change For The Bettor" and "Soul Searcher". In this third and final book in the series Tully's son, Craig, is the center of attention as he is shot three times behind a tavern trying to save the daughter of a high school classmate. Craig actually dies, is lifted up to Heaven and meets our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. The Lord thanks Craig for saving the girl's life, promises him a reward one year later and returns him to his hospital bed where he wakes up in front of his family. After a troublesome bullet is removed from Craig's spine he spends the next year rehabbing. He gets out of his wheelchair to walk during halftime of his son's crucial game against archrival Southport South, Craig's alma mater. Craig walks in front of TV cameras and microphones, and his son, Mitch makes a school-record nine three-pointers in the underdog East Milwaukee Greyhounds' 72-65 win over the South Cardinals. Craig goes on to live a normal life, even though he has to walk with a cane. Mitch makes First Team All-State, leads his team to the state's Final Eight in Madison and walks on at Marquette University. Meanwhile, Tully gets over his bitterness toward his friends and the shooter and becomes an even better soul searcher.
