| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "The Big Fix" by George O. Smith is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. The story takes place in a world where telepathy and psi powers exist, creating a complex social landscape where manipulations of chance and human nature become intricate games. The narrative revolves around the protagonist, Wally Wilson, who is confronted with an outrageous request to fix the outcome of the Kentucky Derby involving three seemingly incapable horses. In the plot, Wally finds himself coerced by the enigmatic Joseph Barcelona into ensuring that Flying Heels, Moonbeam, and Lady Grace finish in a specific order at the Derby. As he navigates the dangerous intersection of crime, telepathy, and the law, Wally grapples with the ethical implications of his predicament. The story is enriched with a cast of colorful characters, including the tough yet captivating Tomboy Taylor, and Lieutenant Delancey, who is suspicious of Wally's activities. Throughout the book, Wally's struggle to balance friendship, criminal activity, and his own moral compass leads to a clever resolution where human nature ultimately thwarts Barcelona's plan, illustrating the resilience of integrity amid the temptations of manipulation.
