About the Book

'A lean, careening thrill … one of my favourite books of the year' Megan Nolan‘Riveting reading' The Times'Irresistible … A page-turning story of sex, power, and money' Vogue, Best Books of 2024 So Far A razor-sharp novel that skewers the life of the uber-rich in the vein of The White Lotus, with shades of The Talented Mr Ripley and The Graduate Conor comes from nothing, but he knows how to win. Tennis has taught him how to be relentless. How to work hard and stay patient, even when your opponent has every advantage. Tennis is what takes Conor to a gated community for the summer, where he can give overpriced lessons to the super-rich. It brings him to Catherine, a bored but intoxicating divorcee twice his age. And to Emily, a girl he might actually love. As the summer heats up, Conor finds himself not just playing a game, but fighting for survival. Will he put his emotions aside for a greater prize? After all, in tennis, love means nothing.
