Gold is the story of Zoe Castle and Kate Meadows, world-class track cyclists who have been friends and ardent rivals since their first day of Elite training. The novel follows their intertwined lives and competition spanning the Athens, Beijing, and looming London 2012 Olympics, their last chance at a gold medal. Now on the eve of their final competition, Kate faces a heart-wrenching choice as her eight-year-old daughter, Sophie, is battling a recurrence of childhood leukemia. The two women are tested to their physical and emotional limits, forcing them to confront how much they are willing to sacrifice for the people they love versus the pursuit of their lifelong dreams of Olympic glory.
