Suspense In whites - Tennis 2026: Tennis: Eleven Stories of Suspense (Series 9 - Clean Sport, Dirty Games: The Sealed System Suspense Thrillers Book 5)

About This Book

Tennis looks like the purest of contests: one player, one opponent, every shot in full view. But the individual game is also the loneliest, and the things that decide it happen off the court — in the rankings, the wildcards, the bodies pushed too young, the money that moves around a teenager nobody is protecting. In these eleven stories, women on the institution's edge — an umpire, a trainer, a tournament administrator, a fixer's reluctant accomplice — see the one thing that doesn't belong and refuse to look away. They fight not with scandal but with rigor, insisting an institution account for itself to an authority it cannot buy. Suspense in the Sidney Sheldon tradition, where the cleanest one-on-one sport hides its wrongs in everything that surrounds the match.

From the Author: The loneliest sport fascinated me: one player in full view, and all the real decisions made where no one is looking. — Manoj Palwe
