The Protege

Mark Williams

Mr. Ruggliero, how much money had he bet? More than $25,000? Warily, Charlie’s eyes searched the surrounding
areas for the face of looming hoodlums.


A bartender (Charlie Grifter) is taught the ‘tricks of the trade’ by a great pool shark (Big Milwaukee) shortly before his demise. Eventually, this protégé becomes involved in tournament play, as well as the convivial and corrupt aspects surrounding it. Bets, hoodlums, drugs and a woman, all blockade the road he must take to win the Tournament Championship.

I might shorten some of the dialogue in the first chapter. When Redmond is trying to bring along Gabriel and she won't let him leave the love becomes... view book

Hello Eleanor Stoneham, I read the first three chapters of your book. I believe in God, Heaven and Hell. I like the fact that your seeing bigger picture and how to make the world a better place but I do not believe the answer is in organized religion. There's so much at stake like money, corporatio... view book

Hello Rheagan, I read the first five chapters of your book. In the first chapter I was confused about who the Peacekeeper was. Not until you introduced Tessa was I able to understand and it kind of added into more confusion in chapter two with Fujiwara. I like this character Tessa and how she is fl... view book
