The Horsewoman
This "hugely entertaining, riveting page-turner" (Louise Penny) follows the complicated relationship between mother and daughter as they face off in the Olympics--and into a ride they can barely control.
Maggie Atwood and Becky McCabe, mother and daughter, both champion riders, vowed to never, ever, go up against one another.Until the tense, harrowing competitions leading to the Paris Olympics.
Mother and daughter share a dream: to be the best horsewoman in the world.
Coronado is Maggie's horse. An absolutely top-tier Belgian warmblood.
Sky is Becky's horse. A small, speedy Dutch warmblood.
Only James Patterson could bring you such breakneck speed, hair-raising thrills and spills.
Only hall of fame sportswriter Mike Lupica could make it all so real.

I really enjoyed reading this book. Hard to put it down. I’ve attended a few horse shows but I am nowhere near even an amateur of the sport. Sometimes familiar might pick it apart. But the story is more about the mother daughter relationship. I highly recommend reading it.
I don't read Patterson, generally I mock him, but thought I would try because of the subject matter and the fact that I like Mike Lupica, the co-author.
NOPE, NOPE, NOPE. Can't do it. Dialog is awful and the horse, show jumping, and Florida details are all wrong. James Patterson lives there, for heavens sake.
