The sequel to Miracle on the 17th Green published in 2005 where Travis’ golf turned a corner but he loses everything else in his life. It is very untypical for a Patterson, short and happy. So now Travis is suspended for six months and becomes a caddy. A lad turns up at his place offering to shovel snow and Travis finds he is a golf natural and makes the boy a promise. Keeping it or not is the ‘inspirational’ side to this short tale. ~ Sarah Boadhurst
