George Roberts is due to appear on BBC West Midlands on Sunday! George will be discussing his book 'From Ten Down to Three' with presenter Llewela Bailey. Make sure you tune in! In 1986, James collapses after a game of football at school. The cause is diagnosed as a tumour on the brain. Although treatment is successful, James will never be the footballer he was. The story of James continues on into his thirties as he falls in love, starts a family and becomes, in a modest way, a hero. In 'From Ten Down to Three' George Roberts examines fate as events happen in James's life that leave him questioning whether things are meant to be or are simply coincidence. A phone call made in error lead to him finding love. A bang on the head reveals the presence of the tumour. Saving a young woman's life leads to an unexpected encounter. 'From Ten Down to Three' is a delightful read full of wit and a dash of tragedy.
