bowl through

[robuca]

Would any of you please help me on this:

"She bowled her way through the half of the beds of London" (Brown, Tina; "The Diana Chronicles; p. 297; Doubleday; 2007; NYC)

Thank you in advance!

It could mean that she had sex with a large number of people, and not in a discreet or careful fashion. Imagine a bull moving thru a china shop. 'bowled' COULD be a euphemism for 'balled'.

Was the 'the' that I underlined in your text, above, in the original, Robuca?

yes it was imn the originals, indeed
