Summary
Ted would be the first one to admit that he didn't know a darned thing about football when he arrived at Richmond. So no, he was not at all prepared for the awful, horrifying truth he discovered: that football clubs were allowed to keep some of their players as indentured servants -- slaves, to be more accurate. He wasn't prepared to take on a tradition that allowed for physical, emotional, and sexual abuse, all in the name of winning football matches.
As for Colin and Jamie, who were both sold as indentured servants when they were kids and have barely survived since then, they long ago learned not to trust anyone but each other. Especially not with an owner like Rupert Mannion, who's been happily abusing his authority over them for years. They know better than to believe anyone will help them.
Luckily, Ted believes enough for all of them. But he's got his work cut out for him, because a system that will accept human trafficking in exchange for football excellence is not one that will change easily...

Summary
“So how’d the whole meeting your former coach and teammates after dropping off the face of the earth 5 years ago thing go?”
Jamie paused, taking a deep breath in slowly and releasing it even slower, looking towards the ceiling like it would somehow make the next words out of his mouth less embarrassing to admit out loud. “I panicked, and introduced myself to them like they’d never met me.”
***
Five years after Jamie Tartt quits man city and disappears off the face of the earth, some of the players at AFC Richmond participate in an outreach program where they visit some local school, and mentor some of the children. These two events are a lot more connected than they first seem.

Summary
What had happened?
Just yesterday he had chatted with Jamie, joked with him about the weather. The younger man had been laughing and sprinting down the pitch.
Now he was in the middle of emergency surgery.
It hadn’t been a car accident or some crazy kind of medical issue. Someone had broken into him home and stabbed him.
