Publisher's Summary:
A steeplechase at Bangor races...after a mile, a horse suddenly goes wild and smashes through a fence leaving his jockey, Eddie Malloy, comatose. This is no freak accident. In the following weeks, more horses go wild during races. Fortunes are won and lost on them, and the only consistent clue is that Eddie Malloy rides in every race where the horses hit blind panic.
The racing authorities want Eddie grounded. The police want to use Eddie to nail an 'uncatchable' crime lord. Ben and Alice Searcey want Eddie's help and protection against a vicious ring of girl traffickers. And the sexy 'Gypsy Princess', Primarolo Romanic needs Eddie to help hold together her relationship with handsome two-timing trainer, Dil Grant.
Eddie has never faced so many challenges. In this long, intense and fast-moving story, can he keep everyone he cares for alive and unharmed? Or has his luck finally run out along with the wild horses?
Members Reviews:
A change of pace for Eddie and readers.
This was, to me, a most unusual Eddie Malloy book. One that shows, at least a first, an older and slightly more mellow Eddie, generally content with his unconventional new "family." The pacing seems quite different, with it starting off slowly and moving in a perhaps obvious manner towards denouement, but at about half-way through the book. Then "wham," everything turns on its ear and it seems the book gives the reader one of the wild rides for which it is named. I wasn't certain that I cared much for the book through the mid-point, but now see the reason for this pacing.
As mentioned, it is different from most Eddie Malloy books that start fast and keep up the fevered pace, with occasional increases and decreases until the climax. But in retrospect, I believe this change of pace is a good one, keeping the books from becoming too formulaic. It's a good read and well worth one's time.
A few words about the announcement of the next two books in the series, which are to be flat-out rewrites of two previous books, dropping the previous protagonist Frankie Houlihan in favor of Eddie Malloy. This is being done to sort out the timeline of Eddie, and the authors have certainly given clear warning to readers regarding the previous lack of continuity. The next book, "For Your Sins" (previously "Joseph's Mansions") did not have Eddie in it at all. It seemingly was a sales flop, but I found it an absolutely excellent read and it left me looking forward to more with Frankie. He was an excellent counterpart to Eddie, allowing the authors (one since retired) to write about similar topics from different points of view. This rewrite will be Eddie Malloy "sorted timeline" book 9.
Then I read "Bet Your Life" in which Frankie and Eddie were both protagonists. But I did not like what had become of Eddie, how his personality had changed, and that he was a victim during much of the book. The Frankie portions remained strong, though. In the end it was the only Eddie Malloy book I wish I had not read. It needed more Frankie and to have a character other than Eddie as the second lead. Instead it will be rewritten as Eddie Malloy "sorted timeline" book 10, dropping Frankie.
