Inspired by true events, The Last Horseman is a gripping story of a Midwestern housewife who secretly devises an epic gambling scheme to save the career of her alienated horse trainer husband -- perfect for fans of Secretariat and The Greatest Gambling Story Ever Told!

Eddie Logan was once the nation's leading standardbred horse trainer. Today he's down on his luck, struggling to survive in a world where rigged races and corruption threaten the future of the sport he loves. As Eddie faces mounting financial pressures, he succumbs to the temptation of cheating, the one-and-only time in his career, only to lose everything--except the love and support of his wife, Jean.

Desperate to save the man she loves, Jean cooks up a lucrative-and illegal-betting scheme. With the help of an organized crime boss, she bets on race after race, risking everything in the hopes of winning enough to restore Eddie's reputation and career.

Jean must stay one step ahead of the law while keeping her scheme secret from Eddie, who would put a stop to it, and the horse racing officials, who would ban her and Eddie from the sport for life. As she walks a narrow line, Jean must decide how far she will go to save the one she loves.

Life is about great stories.

Bob Mazerov grew up on a standardbred horse farm in rural southern Ohio, much like the farm in "The Last Horseman". He isn't simply telling this story, he's lived it. He would arise early to go to the barns, feed the horses, brush them, clean their stalls, train them, and travel with his family as they raced the horses throughout the Midwest and Eastern U.S.

He's been writing all his life and is a sucker of a good story. Bob studied Journalism at Ohio State University (before it was THE Ohio State University), and put his writing on hold to build a successful career in marketing and advertising. Throughout it all, he never gave up on his passion for writing. Along the way, Bob learned how to craft a compelling story, because life is about great stories.

Today Bob lives in a nondescript suburb of Denver with his wife, who is his soulmate, his editor, and is also a writer. Bob always wears a sweater, never eats pickles, is an avid photographer and sailor, and has a black belt in Tae Kwon Do. Frankly, Bob is so commonplace, it would be difficult for you to remember you even met him, or pick him out of a lineup. So he lets his stories speak for themselves.
