Fancy a spot of peaceful, dignified golf? Then West Belby, with its dark past and present traumas, is not the place for you. Hard up and desperate, the club's novice managers turn to the services of a mysterious American, who promises what he may never deliver and keeps his past a secret. Fraud, vandalism and an unexplained fire put fragile friendships and rocky relationships to the test. Old rivalries re-emerge, past loves gain new energy, ancient wrongs cry out for revenge and John Winter, a decent man with one major weakness, women, is caught in the middle of a tale of deceit, revenge, passion and humiliation, as the past returns to haunt them all. Even the tightly regulated game of golf, with its strict etiquette, buttoned-up morality, and a rule for every situation proves an unreliable restraint on the explosive emotions of its players. Off the course, moreover, there are no rules, and precious little remains buttoned-up for long! 'Winter Rules' is a rip-roaring follow-up to the popular 'The Trophy Wife'. It deals with grown-up themes in a humorous, witty and down-to earth way. The style is delightful, the characters engaging and the story turns this way and that before reaching a satisfying and surprising conclusion.
