The Swindle : When a race is more than a race

From the publisher

When Jayde accepts a scholarship to Mackenna Girls School, she is gifted a chance to break free from the shackles of her family’s
past. The price for this new life - win a prestigious race. Crouching into the start position, the future she was promised is ripped
away. Escorted from the track, her dream quickly descends into a nightmare. Pushed to the edge, her only path to redemption is
through a recovering alcoholic war veteran and the revival of a fifty-year-old plan. Entering the world of professional running, Jayde
has to quickly learn how to swindle the swindlers. Avoiding scrutiny and her nemeses Victoria, she must carefully navigate her way
through a series of country gifts. Everything she does is meticulously aimed at one event, The Grampians Gift, the highest paying most
prestigious professional race in the country. Unknown to Jayde, this race has far greater implications than just redemption.
