The brand-new book from the legendary Jilly Cooper, featuring the iconic Rupert Campbell-Black. Be prepared for scandal, sex and sabotage - this time on the football field... Jilly Cooper's legendary hero Rupert Campbell-Black returns! Rupert Campbell-Black, despite being one of the most successful owner/trainers and one of the handsomest men in the world, is in the darkest of places. His adored wife, Taggie, is about to undergo chemotherapy, his beloved horse Love Rat has died, and now his daughter Bianca wants him to co-manage a local football club - a sport he knows nothing about. But when Rupert sees Searston Rovers play, he knows they can be better and doesn't hold back in letting the footballers know. Soon Rupert is not only managing the club, he owns it - and is determined to get them into the Premier League. Their rival football club isn't going to make it easy for him though - let the sabotage and scandal begin...
