Danger... Deceit... Destiny... (Inspired by true events)Sophie Harding sets off on a world championship tour to Mexico with her son and the New Zealand junior ice hockey team - her loveless marriage in tatters.Packed with danger, deception and sabotage, it proves to be an unforgettable journey with a series of life changing events - but destiny awaits.'An exciting page-turner inspired by true events.'********************The ultimate fight for life becomes the ultimate rite of passage for the New Zealand junior ice hockey team. Encompassing camaraderie, discipline, grueling training and extreme life lessons, this toughest ordeal forges the bonds of lifelong friendships and lessons learned.Anton has grown up with an undying love and passion for his chosen sport, hockey. It should have been a relaxing, once in a lifetime adventure for Sophie acting as team nurse, as she accompanies her young son and his team to train in the USA then play in the world championships in Mexico...As her broken marriage crumbles around her, she finally accepts that the promise made to her of true love and a fairy tale ending is nothing but a long forgotten and neglected lie. She embraces the opportunity for three blissful, peaceful weeks away to gather herself, and plan which direction her life and her failing marriage will take. Instead, the trip develops into an exhausting, once in a lifetime nightmare that Sophie will never quite recover from. A series of life-changing events has her fighting for her life against drug addicts and would-be kidnappers. Then the championship host's ice rink proves to be a dangerous and frightful health hazard, and the team's accommodation quarters aren't far removed from a third world prison camp, complete with armed security guards! To cap it all off, on the opening night of the world championships, the entire team faces grave peril with a potentially lethal cocktail of things that go horribly wrong. And with out-of-character newfound strength, like a mother lioness, Sophie must battle relentlessly against the clock and several unknown compounding health threats to protect and save the life of her own cub and the other nineteen teenage boys entrusted to her care. As if that wasn't enough to endure, the team's nightmare is not over yet. What more can their hosts throw at them? How much more treachery, treason, sabotage and corruption can they face? How can the world championships possibly continue? And what will become of Sophie upon her return to New Zealand? Will she ever find romance and her knight in shining armour?About the Author -Rochelle Dowman is a qualified Registered Nurse, experienced Emergency Nurse, and is Charge Nurse Manager of an A&E Centre in Auckland, New Zealand. She lives with her husband Alan and has two adult sons, Andrew and Hamish.
