by Mindy Drayer

Overview

He's done what no coach in the entire state of Ohio has ever done before. But, it still wasn't enough.

Dick Kortokrax was called "The King" for a specific reason and fans passionately idolized the coaching legend. But sometimes, those in your own backyard are the hardest to please. This book takes you on an emotional journey of a lifetime beginning in a small midwestern town where basketball is not just a game. It's the heartbeat of the community. You'll feel as though you're among an electrified crowd of people as the final seconds tick away from one heart stopping game to another.

Mindy also explores various obstacles and personal hardships that transpired along Dick's pathway to success. Even in the darkest of times, Dick relied on his faith and his family. There was one thing, in particular, that kept him going. But one day, it would all come to an end...or would it?

There is only one King, and his story is truly unforgettable.
