Summary

710: J Wesley Frost plays golf to get away from thinking about his work as a small town police officer. So does the main character of his first self published book, “18 Holes” available on Amazon. But that’s where the similarity ends. The main character, Henry Walsh, is about taking you out for a detailed round of golf, but like all of us, it’s what happens between shots that makes this book hard to put down. .  Congratulations to Petra C of Santee, CA.
