Description
In the sweltering heat of Reno, Nevada, the Daughters of America girls' boxing championship unfolds over two intense days, serving as the backdrop for a story steeped in expectation and tragedy. As young athletes vie for victory, an unexpected event at a local community pool shatters the fragile peace, forcing a family to confront their relentless pursuit of triumph. This novel delves into the complex desires for control—to accelerate or halt time, to gain or relinquish power—exploring the profound impact of ambition and loss on the human spirit. Rita Bullwinkel masterfully crafts a narrative that is both visceral and emotionally resonant, examining the intricate bonds that tie us together even as we grapple with our deepest fears and desires.
