Tight Spiral

Inspired by Lee Childs and Steve Berry, Tight Spiral is a fast-paced novel combining sports fiction with romance and suspense and has been written by former American Football Coach, Michael J Gill.

“NFL football continues to grow in popularity in the UK, and this is the perfect time to launch a book written by a Brit who not only coached, but has a deep knowledge of the game,” observes Michael. “I doubt a British born player will become a top Quarterback in the USA in my life time, but Harry Smith will be a hero to many!”

The novel follows Harry Smith, the first British quarterback in American college football who had everything going him: a star future, and a pretty Texan girl on his arm. But when ‘Prince Harry’ collides with fate in a near-fatal accident, everything unravels.

Paul Smith, Harry’s Granddad, has always been supportive. After all, it was his idea to bring Harry to Texas in the first place. But when Harry emerges from his coma with no interest in football, it’s up to Paul to bring him back to life.

Amy Carrington is a sports reporter in Leeds, England, who’d much rather report on life and fashion. But her boss has a brand new job for her covering the rise of American football in Britain that might just skyrocket her career – and change her life.

Ben Shannon is a millionaire with one unfulfilled dream – owning an NFL team. Thwarted at every turn, he changes tactics, founding the Leeds Cougars football team and transforming the face of British football.
