Garry Grayson's football rivals or the secret of the stolen signals blends athletic spirit, rivalry, mystery, and camaraderie in a story where football becomes a stage for larger conflicts. From the opening moment, a group of boys eager for the new season stumble upon a dramatic event: a plane crash that introduces a wounded aviator into their lives. This sudden incident marks the beginning of unfolding secrets and strange occurrences. With Garry striving to make the regular team after several star players have graduated, the team faces internal shake-ups, while external threats start to emerge. Mysterious happenings, suspicion, temptation, and even sabotage cloud their journey, as stolen signals and underhanded tactics put their sportsmanship to the test. The story explores the clash between fair play and deception, the test of character under pressure, and the need for unity when rivals and enemies lurk close. As Garry s leadership and integrity are challenged, the boys must trace hidden motives and confront a plot far beyond the football field. The stakes grow with every game, turning youthful ambition into a search for truth.
Autorenporträt
Roy Rockwood was a pseudonym used by Edward Stratemeyer and the Stratemeyer Syndicate for a variety of adventure books, especially those targeting young boys. The name is most notably remembered for the Bomba the Jungle Boy series, which became one of the popular titles under this pen name. Edward L. Stratemeyer, the mastermind behind the Syndicate, was an American publisher and a prolific writer of children's fiction. Born on October 4, 1862, in Elizabeth, New Jersey, Stratemeyer founded the Stratemeyer Syndicate, a publishing company that produced a remarkable volume of children's books. Throughout his career, Stratemeyer wrote or oversaw the production of over 1,300 books, with total sales exceeding 500 million copies worldwide. His work includes famous series such as The Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew. Stratemeyer's ability to create enduring series was central to his success, and his influence in children's literature remains substantial. He passed away on May 10, 1930, at the age of 67 in Newark, New Jersey, and is buried at Evergreen Cemetery & Crematory in Hillside, New Jersey. His daughter, Harriet Adams, later took over his legacy, continuing the Syndicate's work.
