O knihe

Clover Phillips is an award-winning documentary maker who finds success documenting pro-surfer Duke Allbright's life following a tragic accident against his bitter rival, Kit Foley. While Foley retains riches and fame in the wake of the controversial incident, Allbright's fortunes nosedive and Clover's film aims to shine a light on a forgotten hero. But when Allbright dies unexpectedly, on the eve of Oscars glory, Clover makes a promise to his widow that she will find justice for Duke and expose Foley for the villain that he is.

Foley, having won everything there is to win in the surfing world, has set his sights on snowboarding and is on the brink of going pro. His management see Clover's approach as an opportunity to tell his side of the story, as well as raising his profile in this new community. Foley isn't convinced but his sponsors demand it and Clover and her team relocate to the Austrian Alps to film and document his preparation for his debut season. Shadowing him everywhere he goes and interviewing everyone in his life, tensions run high as she begins to discover the man behind the myth - and the closer she gets, the harder it is to hate him. Can she keep her promise to Duke's family? Or will she step back from destroying the man she loves?
