If you think of TV shows Dallas and now Yellowstone its gives you an idea of the Contention books series.

"Retribution" is the third book in the Contention book series. When down-and-out Aussie horse trainer Logan Weston drove an upper cut into rival trainer Angus Masters, his whole world changed forever. He joined Baker Racing in the UK and, under their banner, swiftly becomes the most successful trainer in the world.

Fast forward two years and Logan Weston, Angus Masters and new trainer Lance Holyfield are about to go head-to-head racing the clones of some of history's greatest racehorses in a new reality TV show. The clones and their trainers are beamed live to the world 24/7 on the reality TV show owned by US billionaire, Howard Irwin.

Howard didn't become a billionare playing by the rules. He will stop at nothing to drive the show's ratings up - even if that means stacking the deck and manipulating his trainers and their relationships...

The Baker Racing family's secrets are revealed to the world and their lives will change for ever.

Logan's and Lance's relationships are tested, along with their clones.

Angus, still fuelled by his need to topple Logan, pushes the limits with both his horses and his marriage until both reach breaking point.

Retribution pulls out all the stops in showcasing the race of the "Champion of Champions".

Autorenporträt

I was raised in the state of South Australia in Australia near a very small town on the end of the Murray River. The town was called Narrung. My hands on horsemanship started with the thoroughbred horse from the age of four. I was my fathers shadow and it was alongside my father my passion for racing began. I would ride track work before school and as soon as I would get off the bus I would head straight to the stables in the afternoon.

My passion was preparing yearlings for sale and I was very fortunate to sell many champions and million dollar plus yearlings over my time and also run my very own successful farm as well.

I never realized until about ten years ago I had an artistic flair and could also write. My Artist side is making metal sculptures and I have been fortunate enough to win a few significant awards. The front cover of my very first book Contention is actually a sculpture I made called "Taking the Plunge" that is now in the Sculpture Garden in the town of Mudgee NSW. (That is also me in the circle posing ).

My whole career in the racing game has provided me with a memory bank of so many characters for my books. All the highs and lows in life, the victory moments and also the heart breaking times in the racing and breeding game enable me to draw on my memory bank and bring to life my fiction story's.

Its sad in ways that I can say I've rub shoulders at the horse sales with a quite a few underworld figures while not knowing the real truth behind their wealth. Most of them always get caught and it shocks the hell out of us all with their underworld lifestyle we never actually knew about. I'm very fortunate to say that 99% of the people I have met in the horse industry are simply decent horse loving people. The fact is everyone loves a villain in a story and my books always have a touch of a underworld/gangster side to spice things up. Enjoy the read and please feel free to send me reviews and emails about what you thought about the book.
