About the Book
Ice hockey is the sport of the spent and concealed body — pain played through, injury hidden behind the code of toughness, the damage that doesn't show until it's too late. In these eleven stories, women at the edges of the rink — a team doctor, an equipment manager, a junior-league welfare officer, a scorer — find the one thing the culture of toughness was built to keep quiet, and decide it should not stay quiet. They resolve it not by force but by refusing to look away, insisting an institution answer for the bodies it uses up. Suspense in the tradition of great thrillers, where the toughest game hides its wrongs inside the bodies that are taught never to complain.
From the Author: This is the sport that teaches you to hide the pain. I wrote it for the people who insist someone count the cost. — Manoj Palwe
