Eve Muirhead: Ice Queen: The Autobiography
Eve Muirhead got her fairy tale career conclusion – an Olympic gold medal to complete the set.
The Perthshire farmer's daughter, multi-talented in sport, inherited her father's love of, and talent for, the 'roaring game' of curling. The road from child prodigy to best in the world wasn't a straight line, however. This is the story of hidden adversity, sporting escapism, inner doubt and external pressure.
Teammates and coaches changed but the resolve of Britain's Ice Queen to fight for her golden ending at a fourth and final Winter Olympics refused to melt. Eve Muirhead changed her sport and will now change perceptions of what it took to become a leader, a role model and a national icon as one of Scotland's most successful ever athletes.

A powerful read the highs and lows of an athlete chasing her dream. It was a fantastic read and well done to Eve for sharing her story, as I could imagine it wouldn't have been easy at times. The resilience and determination shown throughout the book are evident. Thank you for sharing your story.
