The Rivalry: Mystery at the Army-Navy Game

In their latest adventure, precocious 14-year-old reporters Stevie Thomas and Susan Carol Anderson get a chance to help major Washington newspapers cover the Army-Navy football game and stumble across an illegal gambling racket, perpetrated by the game’s officiating squad. Along the way, the cub reporters meet a number of actual famous people (Bob Woodward and Barack Obama, among others).

Still, sports fans, especially college football followers, will enjoy the behind-the-scenes look at the famous game.
