Theo Fleury, Kirstie Mclellan Day

Gebundenes Buch

Playing with Fire

Beschreibung

On the ice, Fleury could be brilliant, but away from the rink his life was defined by cocaine-fueled binges, failed drug tests, and futile stints in rehab. Soon after the NHL finally threw him out, he was out of hockey, out of money and out of changes, but eventually found redemption in his family, and freedom by burying the ghosts of his past.
