The end of winter could only mean one thing. The beginning of the National School Vincit Championships was swiftly approaching and Olly Turner couldn't be more ready. His college Vincit team was a plucky gang of nobodies, translucent in the crowd but blinding on the court. Although it just seems like they'll never get their day to stand on the podium and shine. On the other end of the scale, Olly's sister Rosie plays for her private sixth form's award winning team, who prove themselves worthy winners every year and weren't going to let that title vanish into thin air. Being best friends at home yet rivals on the court could get tough, but when an investigation over a missing teammate opens weeks before the biggest competition of the year, the siblings will have to face more challenges than they're used to. Juggling home, school, romance and the game they adore so much is an obstacle they can't avoid. Especially when one of them knows the harrowing truth about their friend's disappearance
