Overview

This book draws its inspiration from the age-old conflict between the sexes. Men have forever been in conflict with women over who can do what, who should do what, and probably to put it more succintly, who can do what better than the other. This conflict is even sharper in the youth with young women going for careers formerly meant for the male gender, such as politics - and most science based careers. This novella focuses on games. In the story, seven St. Mary's Girls High School students - who we have already met in the other three novellas in the series (Amy, St. Maryan Seven and The Westgate Rescue and St. Maryan Seven and the Dubai Allure) decide to challenge a neighbouring boys school in soccer. With other cross-currents in the plot which involve their school, the boys themselves, as well as their teacher's former collegemate, the stage is set for a riveting narrative. The girls learn a lot more than they bargained for when they challenge these boys.
