Description

In Jilly Cooper's third Rutshire chronicle, we meet Ricky France-Lynch, a moody, macho, and magnificent man with a large crumbling estate, a nine-goal polo handicap, and a beautiful wife who becomes fair game for anyone with a cheque book. The story follows the adoration of fourteen-year-old Perdita MacLeod for Ricky, her journey to become a polo player, and the ritzy, wild, and promiscuous polo set. As tragedy strikes Ricky's life, Perdita transforms into a brat who loves only her horses and Ricky. The narrative takes readers on an exciting journey through various locations, including the estancias of Argentina, Palm Beach, Deauville, the royal polo fields of England, and the glamorous pitches of California, culminating in a heroic battle that goes beyond winning a silver cup.
