Content

Meet the members of St George’s Boat Club:

Dan – dark and brooding, he has to work day and night to achieve his dream of rowing in the London Olympics.

Rollo – rich and arrogant, when he’s not rowing he spends his time seducing women and spending money.

Amy – a brilliant cox who catches the eye of both Dan and Rollo.

In a boat Dan and Rollo row perfectly together, but on land they despise each other. So with the addition of Amy to the mix, sporting behaviour is the last thing on their mind.

May the best man win? Not a chance.

From Henley Regatta to the Oxford-Cambridge Boat Race, and finally to the biggest race of their lives, their determination to settle old scores threatens to capsize everyone’s plans.

Lead Review

Rowing, rude raucous. A great read, especially in view of the pending Olympics, totally gets the feel and clearly the author has researched the subject. The English summer captured perfectly -Kathy Carney –
