Perhaps
Lawndale High is haunted. That would explain the strange things happening
around Joe Brickman . It begins with the arrival of a Brazilian soccer
star called “The Phenom” who arrives mysteriously and shakes things up
around the school. “The Phenom” shines on the soccer field and controversy
follows him everywhere. Things get strange when violence and danger escalate
on school grounds. The football jocks expect others to bow to them in the
halls and the refusal to do this results in major drama. Joe’s best friend
Ed is also a mystery as he plots to take some dark revenge on the entire
school. Follow Joe as he determines if the craziness at Lawndale High can
be blamed on a phantom or if there is more to it. Will Joe have the courage
to get through the events of his senior year that threaten to take him
down? Find out in Home of the Braves.
