Zum Wunderkind erkoren, zum Tennis getrieben, wurde aus Andre Agassi der rebellische Superstar auf dem Centre Court, eine Pop-Ikone der Achtziger. Kaum stand er ganz oben auf der Weltrangliste, stürzte er ab – und fiel tief. Sein spektakuläres Comeback und seine Liebe zu Stefanie Graf machten ihn zu der überragenden Persönlichkeit, die er heute ist. Er fördert die Schulbildung benachteiligter Kinder und kann ihnen das geben, was sein Triumph ihn selbst gekostet hat. Das sensationelle Selbstporträt eines begnadeten Tennisspielers, der über sich selbst hinausgewachsen ist.

Paris, 1974. Radha is now thirty-two and living in Paris with her husband, Pierre, and their two daughters. She still grieves for the baby boy she gave up years ago, when she was only a child herself, but she loves being a mother to her daughters, and she’s finally found her passion the treasure trove of scents. When her friend’s grandfather offered her a job at his parfumerie, she quickly discovered she had a talent she could find the perfect fragrance for any customer who walked in the door. Now, ten years later, she’s working for a master perfumer, helping to design completely new fragrances for clients and building her career one scent at a time. She only wishes Pierre could understand her need to work. She feels his frustration, but she can’t give up this thing that drives her. Tasked with her first major project, Radha travels to India where she enlists the help of her sister, Lakshmi, and the courtesans of Agra women who use the power of fragrance to seduce, tease, and entice. She’s on the cusp of a breakthrough when she finds out the son she never told her husband about is heading to Paris to find her upending her carefully managed world and threatening to destroy a vulnerable marriage
