Hammer's Holy Grail

An ace quarterback at Grand View University battles not only his gridiron foes but the emotional battles of his Appalachian heritage. He loves his father who has an anger problem and an alcohol problem, who physically abuses his mother and sister.

Wesley Walton meets a man ravaged by war and lost love, a man who has come to accept his spirituality, a man who befriends Wesley and becomes a silent mentor for achievement and acceptance.

Wesley has been in love with Wilam Ross since junior high school, and their love is rooted so deeply they know with certainty it can never die.

This is a story of faith, a story of loss and achievements, a lovely story of love and redemption.
