Family - Conflict - Tragedy - Obsession - Suicide. Childhood friends, Burton Phillips, Mike Bradley and Danny Salvaggio, have an unusual relationship-they never talked about their feelings growing up . . . but, one day everything changed-they discovered the twisted body of a beautiful woman. The victim, Jessica Peters, was a famous high-goal polo player and the ex-wife of a professional golfer. One of the boys, intrigued by her past-sets out to reinvent her life as a polo player and uncover his theory about her death. But, he soon becomes prey to an obsession, while Jessica becomes the catalyst for three boys rapid journey into manhood. When immersed into the bizarre world of horses, money and power, the immature, young Burton soon finds his life quickly emulating Jessica’s. His addiction to polo, obsession with a dead woman, and hateful vengeance toward his father, all confront the reality of his own character with extraordinary results. Unbridled is an emotional, conflicting story about human frailty, the unique bond of childhood friendships, and the damaging effect parenting can have on the psyche of a child.
