A Paris tournament with more than a trophy at stake

Littleton Wanderers’ unexpected invitation to a charity cup in Paris turns a soccer trip into a predicament for Jack and his team. The tournament brings sixteen teams together, but the description points beyond the competition to unfamiliar city streets, underground games, wrestling rings, and a pet snail named Shelly. Jack’s effort to keep the trip from unraveling is tied to a secret and to the trust of the people around him. As the fifth book in the Number 9 series, it combines youth soccer with an adventure shaped by teamwork, honesty, and the challenges of being far from home.

Book overview

A FOREIGN CITY. A SECRET TOO BIG TO HIDE.

 

Jack Scorer thought relegation was the worst thing that could happen. He was wrong.

 

After a brutal end to the season, Littleton Wanderers receive an unexpected invitation, a European charity cup tournament in the heart of Paris. Sixteen teams. One trophy. The trip of a lifetime.

 

Then everything changes.

 

Suddenly the team is on its own in a city they don't understand. And only Jack can put it right. To save the trip, Littleton stumble into a Paris no postcard ever shows. Underground games, wrestling rings, and everything riding on a pet snail named Shelly.

 

Jack came to Paris chasing glory. Now he's running through a city he doesn't know, hiding from the people who trust him most.

 

Glory brought them to Paris.

But honesty might be the only thing that gets them home.

 

 

Perfect for kids ages 8-12 who love soccer, adventure, friendship, and underdog heroes.
