In which two fierce tennis rivals, Tashi Duncan and Eve Anh, clash not only on the court but within the deepest recesses of their souls, each match a brutal ballet of obsession and self-discovery. Their battles are visceral, the crack of rackets against balls echoing like thunder, the tension between them a palpable force that consumes them both. Art and Patrick watch from the sidelines, hearts heavy with concern, as Tashi and Eve teeter on the edge of self-destruction and, unexpectedly, something more profound. Amid the sweat and the strain, the triumphs and the tears, Tashi, Eve, Patrick, and Art must navigate a labyrinth of admiration, enmity, and burgeoning desire, their rivalry a crucible that forges and fractures them in equal measure.

And when the years of friendship she shared with Tashi Duncan became an ultimatum between the sport and the boy she loved; she found herself at a crossroad.
