An alien invader mistakes the world championship of wrestling for the world championship of Earth. Whoops. Could have happened to anybody, right?
Of course, the tune-up fight doesn't go as planned. But there's more to the story than that. Feiler's fourth book is an homage to the great boxing broadcasts of yesteryear, chronicling the unlikely rise of Florida welterweight prospect, Billy Stormcloud.
After becoming the first couple of wrestling on Earth, Gorpp and Gabby decide too take their show on the road, to Gorpp's home world, a moon called Enceladus in the rings of Saturn. They assemble a who's who of Earth's wrestling greats and embark on an interstellar journey. What they don't know is that there is one among them intent on sabotage.
The king of organized crime in Florida in the 1970s, known as Cracker Capone, is trying to take over the Florida wrestling territory. Will former Tampa cop Randy Hammett, the territory's trusted bag man, lose all of his savings and the girl - or even his life - trying to save it?
