Description
*Completed* 19-year-old Akwasi Appiah has spent his entire life struggling in a small fishing town on the coast of Ghana. But all that comes to a surprising end when he's offered a scholarship to study in one of the best private universities in the country. Penfield University is home to The Sharks, and being a passionate swimmer, Akwasi ventures out to join this swim team, reuniting with his childhood friend, Ethan. Thrown head first into the struggles of uni life, Akwasi tries his best to juggle his academics, swim meets, as well as his affection for a certain ambitious club president, who he may not even stand a chance with. And as if handling the herculean task of love isn't enough, jealously finds its way into Akwasi's life when he winds up as a tough competitor for Ethan in the battle for the title of Penfield's Greatest Swimmer. Some may argue that in sports, a little competition is good... until it results in an innocent person's death, then the whole story changes. And as investigations are conducted and confessions are made, Akwasi soon realises that some friendships are worth more than titles and medals.
