Wyatt Chase is determined to emulate his father in becoming Formula One champion. Haunted by the nightmares of the past, fuelled by the desire to vindicate himself, he will stop at nothing to realise his dream. After his father's tragic death in a car accident, however, and the dismantling of the racing team he had set up, Wyatt is lucky to be taken on as a second driver with a new team, Calibre-Shensu, owned by a ruthless American entrepreneur and a Japanese industrialist. Wyatt's dare-devil courage and split second timing win him early success, but after the race in Rio everything starts to go wrong. One of the team, beautiful Suzie von Falkenhyn, has disappeared during the race; his fellow driver, fiery Italian Ricardo Sartori, is disqualified and Wyatt himself is highly criticised for his 'winning is all' attitude. But more dangerous still, someone is using the team as a cover for sinister, highly secretive business dealings, and Wyatt finds himself swept up in a conspiracy that threatens to overwhelm him - the woman he loves. Moving swiftly from the passion and drama of the race track to the rolling hills of he Colombian drug lords; from the intrigue of the board room to the discipline of the Japanese dojo, Eye of the Cobra is a hugely enjoyable, gripping read.
