Dive
into the world of polo, seen through the eyes of Victoria Blake a –
professional polo player trying to prove she can compete with the best men in
the sport. Players follows Victoria’s rag-tag team through triumph and
heartbreak on the way to England’s prestigious Gold Cup. From the rolling green
hills of England to the sun-kissed Pampas of Argentina to the glamorous fields
of California, Players explores what it means to be a polo player – a local
everywhere and a resident nowhere; always a traveler yet always at home.
The
book follows Victoria’s team: Donald Davies, the young Englishman she meets in
Argentina who becomes her closest ally; Charles McKinnon, the American
billionaire who only breaks out of his corporate shell with his teammates; and
Scott Taylor, the best player in America, who could never hold down a team due
to his fiery temper. Meanwhile, Victoria’s best friend, Debbie Ravenscroft, is
also trying to be at the top of her game as a lawyer and Olympic show jumper.
All of the characters share a thirst for greatness, along with a great love for
their horses.
My
review
Author Elizabeth Humphreys
knows horses. "Players" is full of horse adventure, mesmerizing
characters, and exciting scenarios! Humphreys writes of "Victoria"
who at "25 years old...was the best female polo player in the world." Victoria is the main character and brings the
world of polo into your hands. A thoughtful story, delving into the heart and
soul of polo; all the glory, let-down, and drama. Recommended reading.
