The book is a great potrayal of the Americas Cup with a extra flare! He really know how to write about sailing! He also has great friends to dedicate the book to!
A seat-grabber that I couldn't put down

Well written and a cop's book. Wonderful plot and as usual, great one liners. I have read most, if not all of Wambaugh books, and this is one of the best.

This is just another example of Mr. Wambaugh's extroadinary ability to capture the reader's mind & put them into the character's phych. One almost has to feel sorry for the killer in as much as his thought's regarding the killing, cup and social face is hiliarious. Keeep them coming Mr. Wambaugh!!! Sierra Schoffstall, Columbia, SC
Another hit for Wambaugh!

As an avid Wambaugh fan, I was again drawn into this book. His style of writing keeps the readers attention and prevents you from putting it down. Especially nice is the way he allows his readers to get to know the charactors so well. You will be be surprised, entertained, and amused as Wambaugh takes you through the world of sailing and the America's Cup regattas in San Diego
Great story with "I'll be damned!" surprise ending.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 28 years ago
If the reader looks for intrigue, coupled with suspense, and . . . "The bums got what they deserved!" ending, including a bit of the "behind-the-scenes camaraderie and mystery" which surround the America's Cup international sailing regatta, Welcome! Street cop and vice squad squalor at its best. Wambaugh's a winner every time
