Book excerpt: With millions in prize money up for grabs, can the outcome of professional golf tournaments be rigged? Such is the crux of this suspenseful, tender, sometimes raunchy novel. Charismatic up-and-comer Peter Frazier marries the daughter—and only child—of wealthy Arizona industrialist Julius Giles. Frazier joins Giles’ company, becomes vice president and settles into a cushy lifestyle. Meanwhile, North Carolinian Byron Pickens is growing up with a golf club in his hands and the ancient-and-noble game on his mind. Uncommonly talented, the baby-faced standout is wooed by college coaches. In a fateful decision he chooses a nearby, traditional school where he finds the love of his life in tennis whiz Lauren Cobb—and sees his own game skyrocket. Frazier and Pickens meet when paired in a glamorous USGA golf tournament. A friendship develops, and Frazier keeps the doors open to a potential superstar. Turning arrogant, Frazier, a philanderer, finds his salary pink-slipped by a disgusted father-in-law. After Giles suffers a stroke, however, Frazier envisions supplementing his income through cunning abuses. One is a scheme apt to win handsome payoffs by stealthily managing golf tournament outcomes. When Pickens becomes Frazier’s target, can he be protected by golf’s mythical but steadfast Guild of Honor?
