Inspired by a True Event
Against a seething backdrop of tennis academies, star athletes and
ubiquitous parents, three individuals emerge harboring a dark
secret. Pulling no punches, Vivien Kalvaria faithfully delivers the
raw truths of life in this microcosmic world where elite players
travel in packs for months at a time competing in tournaments
across the globe. Delving beneath the surface the story uncovers
the complexities and emotional struggles that beset parents and
coaches in the grooming of teen athletes and the seductive elements
that drive a father to mastermind a diabolical scheme. The book
moves at a crackling pace with lavish descriptions of
knockdown-dragout matches as the story slipstreams from the
relentless crafting of champions, to a tour of European tournaments
and an astonishing revelation that impels a family toward a very
public trial and shattering climax.
