Beautiful copy. Jockey Rob Finn can't understand why he goes from winning his early races to losing 30 in a row. Plus, his good name and reputation are suffering from the unflattering false rumors that say he has lost his nerve. Other jockeys have been ruined or damaged by the same rumor mill.
Rob is puzzled why his horses have all been sluggish in the races when they had been fine before. His search for reasons lead him to discover a diabolic and very dangerous individual who could take his life as well as his reputation.
Dick Francis is in his best form here. Another page turner, a likeable hero, a great plot -- what more could you want?
I highly recommend this book.
