Search - Risk

Good read

Dick Francis never disappoints

From the book's cover: "Roland Britten, accountant and champion steeplechase jockey, wakes to confusion. He's cold, blind, and can't find his hands. Something above prevents him from sitting up, and a rumbling din fills his hearing and rattles his bones. Obviously, he surmises, it is pitch-dark and he is bound near some kind of engine. but why? And where? And by whom?
All the staggering answers come when Roland manages a bold escape - then is quickly recaptured in a deadly game of cat and mouse. What is at stake is his very life, and that is worth any risk..."

As usual, Dick Francis, writes a fast-paced, exciting mystery/adventure. I found the ending unsatisfying, but the book as a whole is a good read.
