Primary Beneficiary David Tackett 9781453804872 Books Reviews
Very entertaining! The author weaves a tale that is set in small town in Arkansas. Hot Springs, AR is a beautiful town that has a history that includes the same vices as Chicago. The rackets and the wise guys who ran them, no longer have an stock in Hot Springs...as far as you know. The book follows a few guys from the high school football glories, the parties that followed and were at times more glorious than beating their local rivals. Tackett explains that horse racing is not exactly as it seems and that Oakland isn't the only place that books money on the races. It covers gangsters, drugs, booze, women, white collar crime, blue collar crime, fraud, life insurance policies that were fraudulent, not just for the benefactor, but for the agent that wrote the policies. Everything was in sync. It read like a David Lee Burke novel. If you like the Robicheaux novels. It is a must read!
A presently unknown Arkansas author has put together an extremely entertaining read! Bright future ahead for Mr. Tackett.
I was lucky to have met the author and got the book directly from him last March. It was a great story that I read in one sitting...couldn't put it down. I visit the town where the story is set annually and now I love it there more because of Primary Beneficiary!

In "Primary Beneficiary" David Tackett spins a yarn that takes the reader from a small town high school sports arena in Hot Springs, Arkansas to the corporate offices of the Premiere Insurance Company of America. David provides glimpses into the back room of a booking office, clandestine meetings in dimly lit booths with mafia members, a behind the scenes look at the horse races, as well as insights into the inner workings of the insurance business.
Tackett has developed a strong cast of colorful characters. The plot unfolds through dialog and back flashes. These help the reader become intimately acquainted with the thought processes, motives, and weaknesses of the main players.
Bradley Clevenger was the star tail back on the football team at Hot Springs high school for three years. Bright, athletic, and likeable Bradley was the hero of the high school, and toast of the town.
Tony La Tour struggled with his class work but had a knack for getting others to do his work. Tony lived the law of the jungle. He grew up in a gambling family and learned how to book races at an early age.
Ricky Alexander loved basketball. He married Rebecca, an attractive cheerleader. After high school graduation Ricky left Hot Springs to go to Lawrence, Kansas to get into the cattle business. Over the years he developed a gambling problem and was soon deep in debt.
David weaves a tale of greed, deceit, crime, and cunning around the lives of these three young men. A sports injury in Bradley's junior year at the University ended his sports career. Ambitious and eager Bradley was soon established in his own Insurance Agency in Hot Springs.
Tony's continued to develop his booking skills and became an expert at the daily racing form and a regular fixture at the Oaklawn Park. As a sideline he provided his under age high school acquaintances with liquor, cigarettes, and other entertainment, sidelines and benefits, for a price. In his mid twenties he got involved with bigger drug deals. After a drug deal gone wrong Tony found himself in debt to the Mafia for $ 200,000.
Desperate for money, Tony came up with a plan. He contacted Bradley at his newly established insurance office. Rick Alexander and Tony La Tour had kept in contact after high school. Tony
often fronted Rick's cattle deals. Rebecca, Rick's wife recognized these as Rick's gambling downfall. After a Jayhawk's basketball game against the Kansas State Wildcats Rick met with an untimely death.
"Primary Beneficiary" depicts a story of insurance fraud, one of the fastest growing crimes in America today. David Tackett, successful in an insurance career of his own, is well qualified to provide the background for this intriguing novel. David has chosen to use his home town as the setting for the story. This gives authenticity to a fast paced complex story of revenge, retribution, and reward.
Received book free of charge.
