QUEEN OF INDY by Dakota Franklin
• Dakota Franklin WINS Best Action/Adventure at Best Independent EBook Awards
When the terrorist Mamoud attacks the house party, Raf Ferenghetti and Sally Samson, juniors at Armitage Racing, save the daughter and heir of Lydia Simpresi, the sponsor and friend of Armitage. As a reward, Raf and Sally are put in charge of Armitage’s run at the Indy 500 financed by Simpresi. Now Mamoud is free and wants revenge for the death of his comrades and his own public humiliation. Raf’s new job includes security.
All Raf wants to do is to protect Sally, help to turn her into a star racing executive—the Queen of Indy—by doing his own job as chief of operations superbly well, and then to return to his own dream of becoming a sculptor.
But Raf answers to the maximum Armitage trouble-shooter, the uncompromising Charlie Cartwright, and for assistance must count on the Armitage security consultants, the relentless Frank Harrington and the ruthless, violent ex-Presidential bodyguard, Joanne Bartlett.
And Mamoud has declared Sally a special target.
“It is liberating to know that by Memorial Day you may be gorily dead.”
Alongside its terrifying thrills, QUEEN of INDY counts among its other excitements a super love story and a seamlessly integrated insider’s look at the creation of a great auto racing team to contest the greatest automobile race in the world. As expected in every Dakota Franklin thriller, QUEEN of INDY abounds in sharply drawn characters on the edge of psychopathology—or over it.
Dakota Franklin's series RUTHLESS TO WIN has already won awards and enthusiastic reviews for fascinating characters and rivetting action. The four volumes already published in the series — LE MANS a novel, REQUIEM AT MONZA, TROUBLESHOOTER and NASCAR FIRST —have all been international Amazon bestsellers.
“I thought the characters were great. I was swept along...a cracking good read.”
— Joo's Book Reviews
“I thoroughly enjoyed this book - in fact, I started reading it again straight after I'd finished it.”
