Second Wind - Audio Cassette - Abridged
Author: Dick Francis, Martin Jarvis (Narrator)
The catastrophic power of a giant hurricane can raise coastal waves thirty feet high and blow through houses at devastating speeds. For TV meteorologist Perry Stuart, however, such predictions are generally hypothetical, as he chiefly predicts periods of English drizzle, with bursts of heavier rain and sunshine to follow.

I must admit the book was slow at the beginning. The temptation to toss the book a get another was an idea that came to me several times. But each time I refused to follow through there was just enough urge to continue. The SECOND WIND came when he finally got on to the eye of the hurricane fly through. From there the story got rather interesting and so I finished the book. Turns out to be not a total waste but a ok book.

In this one, the inimitable Dick Francis deals with a weatherman in the aftermath of a hurricane. As always, it's great stuff.

For the Horseracing and Weather forcasting fan. More of a mystery/thriller type of book than a romance (which is what I was looking for) If you like Clancy or Higgins you'll probably like this one.

Great fun. I love Dick Francis's racing novels, and this mystery about a TV meteorologist is very exciting.

This is pretty good one by Francis. About a meteorologist who stumbles upon a hard secret and people are trying to kill him as a result. It takes place in England and the Caribbean is quite fun. A wonderful read.

I've read almost all of Dick Francis' books and I've loved every one of them. This book is no exception. And I'm not even merely a fan of mystery, or even horse racing, but his books are all so good that it doesn't matter whether you like these genders or not.

Second Wind takes place in more modern times than most of Dick Francis' books, and it amazes me as to how the author can write and be knowledgeable on so many different subjects. Oh, and by the way, this book isn't really about horse racing at all.

P.S. His characters are great! You either love them or hate them.
