Each of the eight teenage girl boxers in this debut novel has her own reasons for the sacrifices she has made to come to Reno, Nevada, to compete to be named the best in the country, and the series of face-offs that are raw, ecstatic and punctuated by flashes of humor and tenderness animates the competitors' pasts and futures as they summon the emotion, imagination and force of will required to win.
