It's the most elite school sporting event in the country. Nine rowers, 2000 gruelling metres, and one chance for glory in the ultimate team sport. Sit forward... ROW.
Tall, gifted, and the offspring of Olympians, superstar siblings Leni and Cristian Popescu are set to row Harley Grammar to victory in the Head of the River. With six months until the big day, the twins can't lose. Or can they?
When Cristian is seduced by performance-enhancing drugs, and Leni is suffocated with self-doubt, their bright futures start to fade. Juggling family, high expectations, study, break-ups, new relationships, and wild parties, the pressure starts to build.
As the final moments tick by, who will make it to the start line? And who'll plummet from grace?
