about the book
A Father’s
Day
A heartfelt novel about family, legacy, and the moments that shape us.
On the final day of the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach, 27-year-old amateur
Andy Rollins finds himself in the unlikeliest of positions: tied for the lead,
walking the fairways of his childhood dreams, and carrying far more than
just his clubs.
Waiting beyond the ropes is Bobby Rollins—Andy’s father, mentor, and
biggest fan—battling a terminal illness but determined to witness one final
round. What unfolds over eighteen iconic holes is more than a
championship pursuit; it’s a moving portrait of a father and son reckoning
with time, memory, and the unspoken bond that has carried them both.
