A dangerous game . . .
When track star Tony Esteban tears a tendon in his knee, it looks like he's lost his chance of being an Olympic star. But Tony refuses to give up. Against his doctor's advice, he trains harder and harder. Not even his girlfriend, Annie Whitman, can convince him to slow down.
Then a weightlifter gives Tony "magic vitamins," and suddenly Tony is running faster than ever - and acting mean and aggressive. When Annie discovers Tony has been taking a dangerous steroid drug, she knows she has to help him stop - before he destroys his whole life along with his Olympic dreams!
Tony was doing some fast arithmetic in his head as he showered. That night, after dinner, he would take another "magic vitamin." That would leave him with only four. It was clear that Tony shouldn't stop taking them now, not when they were doing him so much good.
I'd better stop off at the gym tonight or tomorrow night to see Lou, he told himself. I don't want to run out of these pills now, not when we've got a meet this Saturday. Everyone will be out there, expecting great things from me, especially Dad.
If I'd waited and taken Dr. Griffin's advice, I'd probably still be sitting on the bench, Tony reminded himself.
It wasn't until he got back to his locker and started to get dressed that a little voice in the back of his head reminded him that he didn't really know what was in those pills.
I shouldn't just go and buy more of them, he thought uneasily as he slipped his polo shirt over his head. Not without asking more about them. Not without finding out what these magic vitamins really are.
