Set in a small town of Spencer, Indiana in the fifties, Chris and John, who were from totally different backgrounds, found their common interest in basketball. After an episode on the blacktop court behind the school, John came to the defense of his friend Chris who made a vow that, no matter what, he would always be there for John.
Green Marble is not just a story about friendship, but of unconditional loyalty as the boys' lives intertwine throughout their high school years.
It's a story about a small town and its townsfolks struggling together to build new lives after World War II; how their hearts were torn, and how they came together after a terrible disaster left many loved ones dead; about a man whose love and dedication for the boys he coached; a story about crime and the local law enforcement; about young love; and, of course, basketball.
