No More No Name
by Tim Tingle
Tim Tingle's first novel in the contemporary No Name series depicts the struggles of Choctaw teen Bobby Byington. A strong-willed and determined high school basketballer, Bobby must carve a path through the dark world of his father's alcoholism and angry nature. In the second book, No More No Name, Bobby's mother returns home, and Bobby's basketball team, galvanized by his impressive shooting skills, begins to win. But new problems surface when Bobby's smart girlfriend is bullied by a resentful schoolmate and a fellow team member is abused by his own alcoholic father.
