Sixteen year old Aurelia Patel had just moved to Lincoln High School. 

She got on with her life; she did what other kids her age did. She made friends, socialized, and spent her weekends alone in her room watching shows on Netflix. 

Soon she realized that everyone in her new school played a sport, so she decided to pick up swimming. 

But what happens when she learns that everything in this school is a competition? What happens when she realizes that only the five swimmers that get the top times in the final meet get a chance to stay on the team? How does a typically friendly soul adapt to surviving in a war zone?

Find out in this adventure of sports, drama, and competition.
