The Churning (Paperback)

Arman Hessabi is young, handsome and wealthy. A Persian-American star, he is loved by women and adored by fans. He plays top-flight English football in front of millions, and he might be the best striker in the world. Until the day he wakes up chained to a chair in a house full of enemies. From the very first moment, "The Churning" takes readers into the crazy world of professional soccer and of those who live away from the camera. In this harrowing tale of suspense and power, the Seattle-born Hessabi struggles to survive, and to understand the ruthless men who would hold him in thrall - and worse.
