Sergei "Von" Vonosovich loved to play football, but had been denied the size and strength to compete at the high school level. Things will be different his senior year, however. Von is different now. He's changing, physically and mentally, and the changes are starting to scare his new girlfriend, Haley, and his best friend, Jason. The Ridgewood High locker room has seen its share of steroid abuse, and as the season progresses so do the rumors regarding Von's newfound size and speed. If his teammates knew what Von was really pumping into his veins however, they would run far away and never look back. Von is descended from the ancient Vorgo gypsies of Romania and has unearthed some family secrets that really should have stayed in the old country. When Von discovers his late father's journals, his transformation from benchwarmer to perhaps the best high school football player in the country baffles new coach, Mike Minot. Coach Minot, whose promising NFL career was cut short by a knee injury, will stop at nothing, including murder, to escape the drudgery of coaching high-school ball and return to the bright lights and big money of professional football. Von's venture into alchemy and Minot's quest to wrest the terrible secret from the young star's mutating hands propels the mentor and his student toward a final confrontation, changing forever the lives of all around them that it does not destroy. Joseph Curtin lives in a small suburb on the outskirts of Chicago.
