Reviews: - Based on the Olympics Jim Morley creates interest and mystery in a book that creates a gripping read. It is the third in a line of books that tell the story of a remarkable family who always seem to be in trouble. The book shows the strength of the Olympic spirit and the lengths people go to make their dream a reality. This book like all of Jim's are filled with bad guys and good guys and after following this family from the beginning it is nice to see them taking on whatever life throws at them. An easy read that will grip you whether you sail or not. UK Paralympic contender Megan Pascoe. Olympic Nemesis proves that sailing can be fascinating especially when coupled with the murky world of gambling and race fixing. Hilary Johnson, critique reader. An enthralling read. Olympic Nemesis reflects the author's lifetime with small boat sailing and racing and his first-hand experience of disabled sailing groups in the UK.
