About the Book

End of the Race steals readers away to the shores of Traverse Bay, Michigan. Olympic swimming hopeful, Annika Wolfson is training for the China Olympic team when Brian, her husband and coach, takes off on a sailing trip and vanishes. Annika, bewildered and still grieving from the miscarriage of their second child, searches past and present for an explanation. Distraught, the Olympic qualifications loom. But how can she reach her pinnacle of performance with desperate questions plaguing her?

Is he dead, or did he leave? Why would he abandon her and their six year old daughter?

Her search reveals the impulsive, determined Brian she has known since childhood and his suspicious sail-companions who arrived home without him, but carry her no further--until a family explosion uncovers the missing piece and brings their race to a shocking end that recasts Annika's life forever.
