NEGATIVE SPLIT: Marathon Running: Eleven Stories of Suspense (in the Sidney Sheldon tradition)

About the Book: The marathon is the honest distance - just a body, a clock, and the long truth of the road. But the clock can be cheated, the body sold a danger it doesn't understand, and the pursuit of the time pushed past what flesh can survive. In these eleven stories, women at the edges of the running world - a race official, a sports physician, a course measurer, an anti-doping chaperone - find the one split that doesn't add up and refuse to let it go. The wrongs here live in the body and in the clock, and they meet them with attention, not accusation. Suspense in the tradition of great thrillers, where the purest test of endurance becomes the place a lie can hide for 26.2 miles. From the Author: The road tells the truth about a body. These stories are about the people who refuse to let anyone fake the distance. - Manoj Palwe
