Description - The Significant Seven by John McEvoy
Praise for The Significant Seven...
"McEvoy is a racing expert whose knowledge
permeates the pages, and, like any good tout,
he's full of amusing stories about horses, bettors,
and trackmen." −Publishers Weekly
In 2002, seven friends from their days at the University of
Wisconsin, are getting together for a few flutters on the
horses. On this magical day they hit the Pick Six. It's a lot
of money. Their leader, Arnie Rison, convinces them to use
some of their seven-figure payoff to buy race horses.
Here they get lucky again: one of their buys turns out to be
a stallion with sensational speed. A money-maker. When
injury sidelines The Badger Express in 2005, he is worth a
fortune more at stud fees. So Arnie instigates an agreement:
if one of the significant seven dies, the others assume his
share down to the last survivor.
It's now 2009. When members of the significant seven begin
to drop like flies, ad-man-turned-investigator Jack Doyle
finds himself protecting Renee Rison, Arnie's daughter.
Can Jack Doyle solve this series of crimes?
John McEvoy, former editor and senior correspondent for
Daily Racing Form, is the author of several nonfiction books on
thoroughbred horse racing and five mystery novels. McEvoy
and his wife Judy live in Evanston, IL.
