Jack Doyle Mysteries series by John McEvoy (#4-5)
Requirements: .ePUB Reader | 1.2 MB
Overview: Jack Doyle, a failed ad-man and reluctant sleuth working in the horse-racing world, based in the Chicago, Illinois area:
Genre: Mystery
Photo Finish (#4) Former advertising man, amateur boxer, and track publicist Jack Doyle undertakes a new job in the world of thoroughbred horse racing as a jockey’s agent. His client is a seventeen-year-old feminine riding phenom from Ireland named Mickey Sheehan, who has decided to try her luck in the States. They prove to be an effective team until misadventure occurs as the result of someone secretly administering dangerously illegal medications to horses. In his quest to identify the culprit, the shrewd, irreverent, and always opinionated Doyle is aided by his old friend Moe Kellman, furrier-to-the-Mob; trainer Ralph Tenuta, himself the target of a blackmailer; and young veterinarian Ingrid McGuire, a greatly talented horse communicator. Jack and Moe become co-owners of a talented, bargain-priced colt named Plotkin, who provides several thrills, not all of them welcome. Mickey’s sibling rivalry with her occasionally race-manipulating brother Kieran, one of Ireland’s top jockeys, comes to a climax with Mickey aboard Plotkin in the million dollar Heartland Downs Futurity. The primary setting is the Chicago area racetrack Heartland Downs. Other major scenes take place at New York’s famed Saratoga Race Course and aboard Mob chieftain Fifi Bonadio’s lavish yacht in Chicago’s Belmont Harbor. Doyle is sometimes mistaken but invariably persistent in his search for answers. The challenges he faces in attempting to halt the horse drugging and the threat to Tenuta’s life are the most daunting of his colorful career as an amateur investigator in the world of American racing.
High Stakes (#5) Someone is carrying out “mercy killings” of retired thoroughbred racehorses that have been donated to Midwest veterinarian schools for research purposes. Taking credit for these horse deaths is a previously obscure “animal rights” organization (ALWD) which stands for “Animal Life With
Dignity.” Thousands of miles away, Irish bookmaker Niall Hanratty’s life is under threat from an unknown person or persons.
Called upon to find the culprits in each case is former ad executive, amateur boxer, and jockey agent Jack Doyle, his usual irreverent, opinionated and sharp-eyed self in this, the fifth horse racing mystery of the series featuring him as an intriguing amateur sleuth.
Unbeknownst to Doyle, he himself is the target for murder financed by Harvey Rexroth, the wealthy media mogul now imprisoned as a result of Doyle’s earlier efforts. Rexroth has hired the memorably frightening and efficient young villain W. D. Wiems for this revengeful assignment.
Reappearing in this fourth Jack Doyle novel are furrier-to-the-Mob Moe Kellman, Chicago Mob chief Fifi Bonadio, horse trainer Ralph Tenuta, beautiful horse communicator Ingrid McGuire, and ambitious Irish journalist Nora Sheehan.
As usual, this McEvoy novel features lively dialogue and several uniquely colorful characters, including an Irish hit man with hands “so powerful strong he could pop a man’s brains right up out of his skull”, and former Chicago Blackstone Rangers gang officer Dujuan Coleman.
The rapid action moves from Chicago to Kansas City to a Wisconsin federal prison to Ireland as Doyle deals with this three-tiered challenge of finding a secret horse killer, an Irish villain, and attempting to elude the hired assassin who has dead aim on him.
