By Mark Terence Chapman

Description
Parting Shot is the story of Tom Gomez, a 49-year-old professional golfer. He turned pro at age 18, stunning the golf world with his coolness under pressure, and achieved three tournaments wins in his first two years on tour--including a stirring playoff victory over an aging Tiger Woods--and three top-10 finishes in his first eight majors. But his early success went to his head and the greatness predicted for him failed to materialize. Too much partying and a motorcycle accident were his undoing. Now, three decade later, on the downslope of a mediocre career, Tom Gomez has one last chance at redemption. But it will take an extraordinary event to make it possible. Does he have it in him, or will he fritter away this chance, like so many others? This story, while heavily golf-oriented, contains elements of sci-fi/fantasy. Golfers and SF&F fans alike should enjoy it.
