Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

She left Des Moines with two suitcases, a ring name she invented from an anime she found at midnight, and the specific kind of determination that only comes from having nothing left to lose.Maggie Collins - Your Overlord - takes the offer of a lifetime: a tryout with Tōkon Pro Wrestling in Tokyo, one of the most respected professional wrestling promotions in the world. She arrives with no Japanese, no friends in the building, and no idea whether what she has is enough. What follows is eight months of dojo floors, dark matches, and the careful construction of something real - until it all comes down to one night, one ring, and two championships on the line.Strong Style isn't a book about professional wrestling. It's a book about what it costs to stop performing strength and start being it. About a father who shows up when it matters. About grieving someone who was never actually there. About a woman who decided that the truest version of herself was the one standing in front of twelve thousand people in Tokyo with her hood back and the smile on.The second novel in the wrestling anthology series from Rett Young, following A Wrestling Novel: Kayfabe.
