The Rainbow Player (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781908586872)

England footballer, Sammy Hatchington, has never considered
sexuality before. As a teenager, Sammy broke the mould of his
youthful peers with his desire to open the door to life's endless
possibilities. He escaped a deprived estate and, with the help of Old
Thomas, his surrogate father, Davey, his soul-mate, and Gran, the
connoisseur of footballer's bottoms, launched himself on a path toward
his personal and professional goals. Now, several years later, he must
make a decision that could destroy everything he has fought for, and
create a furious media frenzy.........

David Kerby-Kendall's joyous and witty novel challenges preconceptions
about professional sportsmen and love, and is also a delightful and
moving story of a young man's journey to self-knowledge.
