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.
