Ever since the Olympic gold medallist Angie Taylor had come to visit her primary school, Nina Hallet has secretly dreamt of representing Australia and making sporting history. But she is totally unprepared for her dream to become a reality . .
At the age of fourteen, Nina is catapulted from unknown schoolgirl to national sporting treasure. Now, achieving good grades at school and getting to the pool twice a day are no longer her concerns - she has sponsors to keep happy, media to talk to, international meets to compete at, and expectations to live up to. And it doesn't occur to Nina that these expectations are excessive. It doesn't occur to her that she can say no.
It's only when Nina feels she has nothing left to live for, that she begins to learn the lessons that will truly set her up for life.
