Trying to explain Rocket League to the uninitiated makes you feel kind of silly. To be fair, the concept of soccer played with rocket cars in enclosed arenas does sound pretty silly. But as soon as someone sees the game played, they know it looks like crazy fun. Then when they first play it, the fun factor is confirmed, but they know they have to "get good, scrub." The skill cap in Rocket League has to be endless, the pros get better and better all the time and make crazier and inconceivable shots with more and more consistency. I've been playing with some regularity for a year, and while I've improved greatly, I know for a fact I have so much more to learn and pull off in a match. Aerials! Dribbling! Double Touches! So many skills to improve; I better get back to it right now.

Kudos

Piper’s ex-fiancee arrives in town hoping to get back together even though she has told him repeated they are over. However, the attention soon turns to the soccer team visiting from Italy and the mini-tournament against a team of locals. The Italian team’s manager was an exchange student when he was in high school, and his reappearance has opened old wounds from back then. When he is murdered, it becomes a question of which of those deeds from the past came back to haunt him in the present?

I really enjoyed this book. The characters were just as fun and charming as they were in the first in the series. The plot was wonderful with so many suspects and twists to the story I had a hard time putting it down. Yet things came together for a logical climax.

NOTE: I received an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review.
