“ Golf. It’s what lights us up. It’s our passion. That light you have that is yours and yours alone. It means more than you know to others, without even trying to impress them. It inspires, enables others to rise. It makes people happy.”
Craig Cantwell is well known as a journeyman millionaire and 'the best professional golfer who has not won a major.' His successful life as a tour pro is shattered when he is suspended from the PGA Tour.
Without a place to compete and with a personal life tangled with drama, Craig has to find his way back to a life he knows. His fight is not with the scions of the tour, the public, or the scores of great golfers who would be his opponents. He has to prevail over the toughest of adversaries - himself.
18: A Novel of Golf and Life beautifully tells the story of Cantwell and those in his life: Rachelle Keys, the mother of Craig's daughter and a heroic FBI Agent; Kelly Keys, the new 'IT' girl of golf; Thomas Kincaid, agent and lawyer to the rich and scandalous; And Seth Reede, the personal development guru with a past more shocking than any fallen hero. Far more involved than just a tale of athletic triumph, 18: A Novel of Golf and Life is a story of forgiveness, truth, courage, and redemption.
Fans of Micheal J. Murphy's Golf in the Kingdom, James Patterson's Miracle at St. Andrews, and and J. Michael Veron's The Greatest Player Who Never Lived will love this book for its equal parts of life, love, philosophy and golf.
