Creature

The high school football team never loses, and the postcard-pretty town that cheers it belongs to a powerful high-tech company. A shy, nature-loving newcomer finds a fresh set of bullies, and the team's sports clinic offers to rebuild him. Bantam published the hardcover in June 1989 and this paperback a year later, with Don Brautigam's cover and a preview of Saul's next novel.
