eBook Description: Just when you thought it was safe to go back onto the soccer field along comes Larkin's Lot with another outrageous soccer fantasy story. This time Gerry Larkin, Fran Clifford, and the rest of Larkin's Lot learn that an International Soccer Team has been kidnapped by that truly Devilish character, Lucky Lucy. Folow our group of inept soccer players as they venture to Lucky's dark paradise South of the River Styx to play against an absolutely ghoulish Team, Lucky's Murderers, in the match of their lives. If they lose not only will they forfeit their souls but they will also spend the rest of Eternity in Lucky's specially heated Pit of Pestillence. However, Ignatius--a Heavenly Angelic type--has other ideas. When Ignatius finds out that his friends are in trouble he will risk everything to venture into Lucky's dark kingdom--even the wrath of his busy Boss--to save the terrified team. Unfortunately for everyone, Lucky Lucy has decidedly different plans on how to take care of Ignatius and what to do with Gerry and his inept team mates. This sequel to Hotfoot, Ireland's Number 1 Bestseller, is writen with a combination of adventure, fun, and outrageous good humour. Pitting good against bad, it llustrates how loyalty and friendship can defeat anything--even the Devil himself!

Chapter One"Get the ball you bloody idiot!" You probably remember them, of course. Mind you, I can't say that I could ever forget them. "Tommy! Put your glasses back on! The ball is over there!" Larkin's Lot. Seven of the absolutely worse soccer players who have ever had the misfortune to walk onto a soccer field. Tommy Reynolds, Almost and Not Quite Bright, Harold Smyth, Big Jimmy... "Jimmy! Put down that sandwich and move your fat arse into position!" ...Fran Clifford--you can hear her giving orders from in front of the net--and Gerry Larkin, possibly the worst soccer player in history. God in Heaven, they were horrible! And to make matters worse, they all had but one wish. To become professional soccer players. PROFESSIONAL SOCCER PLAYERS! How could they possibly have wanted such a thing? "Larkin! You're supposed to kick the ball, for Gosh sakes! Not fall over it!" If you'll remember, Larkin's Lot had wanted to become professional soccer players so bad that they had made an incredibly idiotic decision. Remember? They sold their souls to a little fellow by the name of Lucky Lucy... "Hell's bells, Harold! Are you going to play soccer or sit and cry about it? Now get back in there!" Lucky Lucy's mission is rather simple, really. He wants to own souls. Everyone's soul. And he'll do almost anything to get what he wants, let me tell you. "Almost! Not Quite! Down here! The ball's down here! So stop prancing around and get with it!"
