Review: The Winner Maker

The Winner Maker by Jeff Bond
My rating: 0 of 5 stars

High school teacher Fiske has been a larger-than-life figure and individual for decades; but as with any charismatic individual, there are those who love and admire him, and those who because of misunderstanding, fear, or jealousy want to see him fail, perhaps even wish him to stop existing. This novel reminded me of The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair, in regard to its focus on a teacher who is one of a kind, admired yet denigrated, and the lengths to which some will go to stop him. WINNER MAKER has a really twisty plot, with turns I certainly didn't expect. In that, it qualifies as a suspenseful page-turner thriller.
