Book Description
Philip R. Craig and William G. Tapply -- veteran mystery novelists and longtime fishing buddies -- are back with a second joint novel starring their respective series heroes, J. W. Jackson and Brady Coyne.
And something big -- something very big -- is about to happen on beautiful Martha's Vineyard.
International superstar entertainers, top politicians, a former president, and the social elite will come together at the Celebration for Humanity, a musical extravaganza to be telecast live around the world. Headlining the show is legendary singer Evangeline, who's flying in from her Scotland castle, accompanied by her young daughter, Janie.
Vineyard fisherman and sometime private investigator J. W. Jackson isn't much interested in pop music, but he agrees to take a job as the gorgeous Evangeline's driver and guide. The money is good and the company is intriguing.
J.W.'s Boston lawyer pal, Brady Coyne, also has business on the Vineyard. His old friend Mike Doyle is dying, and Mike wants to reconcile with his daughter Christa, who is rumored to be on the Vineyard, before it's too late. Can Brady find her in time?
J.W. 's assignment gets deadly serious when the Celebration's director, Odgen Warner, is found murdered just days before the show is to open. Warner was known to be gruff and demanding, but his death is a shock to the cast and crew. Was it a random killing, or is there a murderer among them who might strike again? Could Evangeline be the next victim? Or is she a suspect?
The search for young Christa Doyle also turns complicated when Brady discovers that a charismatic religious leader may be holding her on an Island compound against her will. Christa and Evangeline live in very different worlds, yet Brady and J.W. find that they must weave together every thread of evidence if they are to save both women's lives.
Filled with charming Vineyard vignettes of fishing, family life, and spirited cocktail hours on the Jacksons' balcony overlooking the sea, Second Sight is a page-turning novel of suspense from two of the most beloved writers in crime fiction today.
Includes three recipes.

WOW!.......2006-03-19
What a great book! Actually I haven't finished it, but if you're aspiring to Amazon's top 10 reviewers and trying to keep up with Harriet Klausner there's no point in wasting time reading. Besides, I can't speed read and have to say each word in my head a couple of times over and I'm always getting distracted by whatever TV show is on. And, well, I trust Harriet. Anything she says about a book goes double for me. I did look at the cover and read a blub.
Let's see. I was placed at 104,000 before I wrote this...
fine J.W. Jackson and Brady Coyne thriller.......2006-03-19
Mike Doyle is dying so when he asks his old college classmate Boston lawyer Brady Coyne to find and bring home his teenage daughter Christa, the attorney agrees so parent and child can reconcile and say their goodbyes. After a trek to the West Coast where she was last seen, he traces Christa ironically to Martha's Vineyard where his fishing friend former cop J.W. Jackson resides. Jackson welcomes Coyne to stay in his home while over the objection of his loving wife he provides additional personal security and driving for famous reclusive singer Evangeline during the week of the Celebration for Humanity rock concert.
When Evangeline's bodyguard is killed, clues lead to a spiritual retreat, the same place that Coyne believes Christa is at. In between fishing, they team up to find a killer, keep a superstar safe, and search for a missing teen before it is too late.
The second collaboration between Coyne and Jackson (see FIRST LIGHT) is a fabulous tale in which the action accelerates late, but fans of both series will not care. The lead investigators and their support cast seem genuine while the vivid picturesque Martha's Vineyard enhances the plot. SECOND SIGHT is a fun thriller as everyone converges on Evangeline.

Seamless double narrative.......2005-06-07
Friends and co-authors Philip Craig and William Tapply really have figured out the secret to co-writing a mystery story. They alternate chapters, each featuring their leading character, and one chapter leads into the next in a smooth and seamless style. In this second dual effort, J.W. Jackson is asked to be the driver for Evangeline, a Madonna-like celebrity who is appearing at the Celebration for Humanity which is being produced on Martha's Vineyard. Meanwhile, J.W.'s buddy Brady Coyne has been asked by a friend to find her runaway daughter before her father dies from a terminal illness. Evangeline's director and her bodyguard are killed and J.W. and Brady soon find themselves entangled with a religious cult and a psychic. The psychic is killed and the two strands of plots begins to intersect and become entwined. The two authors keep the action moving and create an enjoyable mystery, despite a couple of minor plot hitches along the way.
Two Intertwined Tales Entertain.......2005-04-29
Many authors have tried writing mysteries with one another. There are several approaches you can use: One story featuring both authors' characters; one story alternating narrators; two stories similar only in theme; and two intertwined stories. The last is the most difficult, and few collaborate in the mystery genre to try. Thankfully for mystery fans, Philip R. Craig and William G. Tapply (real life fishing buddies) took on this difficult challenge and produced a gem in Second Sight.
I have been reading Mr. Tapply's work for a couple of decades and had not read Mr. Craig's work before. So I started out with some doubts about how well I could appreciate the two together . . . especially since I had not read their first collaboration, First Light. The book opens with J.W. Jackson as narrator and I soon felt like I knew him as well as I do Brady Coyne, about whom I have been reading for so long. Chapters alternate narrators between J.W. and Brady, and this device works well until near the end when they are often in the same scenes and there's a bit of redundancy.
J.W. is a retired cop whose beautiful wife wants him to settle down. When an FBI agent asks J.W. to escort a famous singer, it looks like an easy way to make a few bucks . . . until the agent tells J.W. to be sure and carry his gun. Many people like to get attention by harassing celebrities, but J.W. soon gets a sense that there's more going on.
At the same time, Brady Coyne is called to the bedside of a dying friend who wants to reconcile with his missing daughter. The friend asks Brady to find her and bring her home. Except for a sense of duty and a good relationship with the young woman, Brady feels at sea doing this. But he soldiers on. Calling old friends of the young woman, Brady gets a lead to Martha's Vineyard where J.W. lives. With an upcoming benefit concert, there's no place to stay and J.W. offers to put Brady up.
Once on the island, there paths diverge as J.W. drives the beautiful Evangeline around in disguise while Brady shows photographs of the missing young woman. Before long, dead bodies are stacking up like cordwood, and both J.W. and Brady fear that it's about to get worse.
Will Brady find the girl before her father dies? Will she go see her father? Can J.W. keep Evangeline and her daughter safe? Those questions are kept open until near the very end when the two stories twist together engagingly.
For those who are interested in ESP and psychics, there's a subplot in the book about a fortune teller that you will enjoy.
Very nice work!
It's two, two, two mysteries in one.......2005-02-13
J.W. Jackson and Brady Coyne usually have their own escapades and their own mysteries to solve. But the men are friends and live only a few hours apart from each other, so it seems inevitable that on occasion their paths will cross. Authors Craig and Tapply have led them to do so in "Second Sight." Brady is helping a family friend find his missing daughter. J. W. has agreed to provide security for a high-profile visitor to Martha's Vineyard. The characters take turns narrating chapters, so readers eavesdrop on both men's prospectives. Both Massachusetts natives seem to find themselves in situations that they think are just a bit beyond their investigative capabilities. Other than that -- and their mutual love of fishing -- the two have unique approaches and personalities. It is their individualities and the dichotomies of their situations that make this combination novel intriguing and worth reading.
J.W. is an ex-cop-turned-fisherman who lives to be on the beach. Brady is a hard-working lawyer up in Boston. J.W. is now an established family man, caring for wife Zee and kids Joshua and Diana. Brady's in a relationship that he's currently questioning. J.W. knows nearly every nook and cranny of Martha's Vineyard and has the contacts to follow up on leads. Brady is more familiar with the Boston metropolitan area and is less certain of the terrain he must cover for this assignment. And while J.W. is defending a famous celebrity who's known by millions by sight, Brady is searching for an average teenage runaway who hasn't left much of a trail. Two-thirds of the way through the book, the men realize that the fates of both of their charges hinge on what will happen at the Celebration of Humanity peace concert, which could be anything BUT peaceful. Once the two plots converge, it's all the reader can do to hang on and hope that the good guys will be able to prevent an unspeakable horror of 9-11 magnitude. The ultimate irony is that the action takes place on Martha's Vineyard, a prime vacation island and second home to some of The Rich and Famous. In "Second Sight," it's a hazardous and tragic place to find oneself.
This book is a wonderful installment for readers of either mystery series. And if you "know" only J.W. Jackson or Brady Coyne, you'll be compelled to read the full series of "the other guy." Thanks to Phil and Bill for collaborating once again! This one's "delish."

the forging of the shadows: Book one.......2007-02-11
Dark story: Much switching of good vs bad. I had some problem of getting into the story. I have read Book two and am finishing up on Book three so the overall story has kept my attention.
This isn't very good..........2004-01-08
I was quite disappointed with this novel. The characters are interesting enough but their dialogue and interactions with each other seem very stiff. The antagonists are not interesting. They are very poorly written vampires. I would not recommend this novel to any of my friends. Go read something like 'Gardens of the Moon' instead.
Sweet Book.......2002-12-13
I first got this book when going on vaction, that night I didn't sleep because the story scared the ... out of me. But then the next day I picked it up again and read for 4 chapters and it was awesome. Oliver Johnson made this book unique, no other book I have read has used flashback and foreshadowing to tell the characters history like this one. I would recomend this book to anyone that loved fantasy.
Another stupid vampire book.......2002-07-21
You know, my major gripe isn't with the contrived plot of this book, the unimaginative characters, or even some of the recycled themes which bog it down. One word...vampires. This is a major part of the story of this novel. I don't mind a mention of the undead in the books I read usually but I can't stomach books which recycle vampirism as a major theme. There is a ton of ton of [stuff] around which is published every year that completely revolve this boring and uncreative plot device. Oliver Johnson and other writers preparing to write a book like this need to consider the fact this idea is a much decayed and smelly moldering corpse which has run its course our collective conscience. In short... Vampires [Stink}!
WoW!.......2002-05-29
This book really pulled me into the story and kept me up until late. I highly recommend this book, and the other two in the series, to any fantasy genre reader.

Care of your children/grandchildren.......2007-07-30
EXCELLENT book/guide for taking care-homeopathic care-of children. A homeopathic doctor wrote it in simple, easy reading. I have been using it, with my daughters permission, for my 2 yr old grandson and 4 month old granddaughter and they are the healthiest children.
They only go to the pediatrician for their wellness checkups...otherwise they are never there; whereas my son's partner won't use homeopathic remedies because she does want to "drug" her kids, and they are at their doctor at least once a week, sometimes more - mostly for colds and infections. In their short life (they're twins, 2 yrs) they have had more drugs than even some adults!
THIS BOOK IS A MUST for every family seeking a gentler medicine to give their kid's when they do get ill.
Best homeopathic guide written!.......2006-12-29
This is a very good guide for all the parents! It is easy to use due to the alphabetical list of sicnesses and symptoms and has clear descriptions of remedies that could be used to treat the symptoms. In the beginning of the book it simply describes the basics about homeopathy.
Outstanding resource.......2006-12-02
I have been using homeopathy since 1993 with great success, due in large part to this book. It is well organized and very user friendly. I would highly recommend this book to anyone just starting out, or curious about homeopathy. I loaned mine to a friend recently and I miss it more than I expected! I also own "The Complete Homeopathy Handbook: Safe and Effective Ways to Treat Fevers, Coughs, Colds and Sore Throats, Childhood Ailments, Food Poisoning, Flu, and a Wide Range of Everyday Complaints" and I think it is a nice complement, but I find that I use Dana Ullman's book with greater regularity. Actually, I've used it so often that I've memorized much of it and now I pull it off the shelf to "double check" myself.
Arsenic Buns to Heal a Toddler? No thanks........2006-11-07
I understand that one of the main tenets of homeopathy is treating a condition with something that would induce the same illness in a healthy person, but works to heal a sick person. But you have got to be crazy if you think I'm going to give my toddler arsenic, aconite, a dead mashed-up bee, or many of the other remedies suggested in this book. It is well organized and contains many herbal remedies that would be easy for most people to find at a health food store or organic grocer, but there were many entries that I wouldn't even begin to know where to look for. For instance, elements such as mercury and sulphur--should I raid the local high school chemistry lab to cure a sore throat? Don't think so. I guess I'm more of your mainstream herbalist.
A good reference book for acute illness.......2006-05-02
This is a good reference book. When my child is ill I look in this book as well as several others to try to get a picture of an appropriate remedy. Because homeopathy is somewhat complex I think it is better to consult several reference books to gain a good picture of the illness. This book is catagorized by illness ie. common cold, cough,fever etc., which makes it easy to pinpoint the section I am interested in to get an idea of appropriate remedies. It also has a section in back with a more complete picture of many of the remedies mentioned.

Very Pleased.......2005-08-23
This book is very helpful for first-time cake decorators. I tried a few of the techniques used in the book and was very happy with the results.
Can't Hurt, Might Help.......2005-01-26
This was one of the first books I purchased when I started decorating, and if I'd known then what I know now, I probably wouldn't have bought it.
Pros: If you like fondant, some of the best designs in the book, including a dragon wrapped around cupcakes, christening cake, Christmas cake, and heart cake, are all about sugarpaste. The instructions are written clearly, and the step-by-step inset photos show you exactly what to do. This book also includes a nice overview of different techniques, including fondant, royal icing, buttercream, chocolate, edible rice paper, and marzipan that allows a beginner to understand the difference between them all. Each cake is also rated on a scale of 1-3 for difficulty, and many have variation suggestions with photos, to give additional decorating ideas.
Cons: If you don't like fondant, this book doesn't offer very many appealing designs. One exception is the "Here's Looking at You" cake with eyeballs peeking out from under a buttercream iced box lid. However, of the 40+ designs in the book, only about 5 or 6 really stand out as something I'd like to make--including the designs with fondant, rice paper, and royal icing.
The patterns, recipes, and tips are helpful, but the design ideas just aren't that inspiring.

Customer Reviews:
Makes horse nutrition simple........2004-05-19
This is an excellent book on horse nutrition. It makes nutrition easy to understand and information is presented in an easy to read format. Nutrition concepts (such as protein, fat, carbohydrates, ATP, enzmymes, minerals, vitamins, etc.) and how they are metabolized by the horse are explained. Also included is a chapter dedicated to MSM, DMG, Chondroitin Sulfates, Glucosamine, and Bromelain. The book details how much protein, fat, vitamins, minerals, etc. your type of horse needs (broken down into maintenance horse, pregnancy, lactating, growing, performance, or stallion) and how your horse's health, care and general condition contribute to his ability to absorb these nutrients. Each chapter includes charts highlighting the information presented. Additionally, at the end of the book are charts and formulas to help you determine exactly how much your horse needs of each nutrient and how much he is currently receiving in his diet. They were very easy to use, and this will allow you to see where his diet is deficient. This is a great book for the horse owner who is interested in horse nutrition, wants to optimize what he is feeding his horse, and is curious as to the benefits (or not) of all those supplements on the market.
While you can purchase either the paperback or hardcover here on amazon, if you go to the publisher (www.pixyjackpress.com), the author will sign the book for you. It's a nice touch.
Thank heavens--no hocus pocus!.......1999-12-29
This book offers a very simple, concise look at feeding horses, with an emphasis on SIMPLE. Forage is kept as the cornerstone of the equine diet, and a simple look at protein and mineral requirements is given. Written with U.S. horseowners in mind, this book differs from many books based in the UK, where grain types are much different.
Very entertaining to read, even for a "city girl"........1999-05-24
Rex Ewing captures the reader's interest easily with his relaxed writing style. He makes horse nutrition sound simple and there isn't a lot of confusing technical terms. A straight-to-the-point book.
A proper feeding reference for all horse owners.......1999-01-15
Much more is involved in optimum feeding of a horse than several flakes of hay, a mineral block, and can of grain. Rex Ewing approaches horse nitrition in a thorough, comprehensive manner by explaining the role and importance of nutrients from carbohydrates, fat, and protein to macro and trace minerals to vitamins. He discusses nutritional requirements and the effects of proper and improper nutrition on the maintenance horse, performance horse, stallion, brood mare, nursing foal, weanlings, and yearlings. Whether your horse is healthy or its coat lacks luster, or it displays a loss of appetite or energy, or a weight loss; this book will be helpful. Summary charts are provided throughout and provide a valualbe reference and summary tool. Rex's extensive background and research can benefit the new as well as the veteran horse owner.

Correction of previous review.......2001-05-31
I have a copy of this book in my hands. If you read the preface, you will know that the author is a woman. Furthermore, the Library of Congress catalog record for this book indicates that she was born in 1964. I doubt she was designing Schwinn bicycles at the age of one or two. And I feel pretty safe in saying that she probably wasn't the Vice President of the company at that age either.
This is a great book for collectors and enthusiasts of Sting-Ray bicycles. Great photos and histories.
fierce.......2001-03-02
an amazing book about the best bike ever made. The author is very intelligent and has an excellent grasp of her subject. The only real bummer is the design. Perhaps the publisher could have had a best-seller if they had spent a nickel on the design. Otherwise a very resourseful and brilliant work.
