What happens when a young woman, who has known only acclaim and security, abruptly loses everything? Sedonia Forbes sits in her sports car, parked behind a rundown poolroom. Three months ago, she was the top amateur woman golfer in the nation. Newspapers heralded her as an up-and-coming female Tiger Woods. Now she's a nobody, who can never play golf again. She's come to this poolroom looking for a hustler named Emilio. Tears of frustration well, but she blinks them back. There's been enough of that! She climbs out of her car, and leaving her country-club life behind, she enters the green-felt poolroom jungle. Populated by authentic characters and told from an insider's view of professional pool, Stroke is the story of a young woman's quest for redemption and self-renewal.
