Reviews
--Carl Hiaasen, bestselling author of Squeeze Me
"Patterson and Lupica manage to get deep into the world of high-level show jumping and also, incredibly for two men, deep into the lives of three generations of strong women. I don't know what's more compelling--the white-knuckle descriptions of the horse shows in the lead-up to the Olympics or the tense, complex relationships among the three women. We grow to care deeply about these horsewomen. This is a hugely entertaining, riveting, page-turner of a book. A thrilling and thoughtful read." --Louise Penny, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Chief Inspector Gamache series
