This book was very hard to put down. Dick Francis is such a master at creating and developing his characters, and the mystery and suspence are captivating. I've loved every one of his books, and each one I read, I think is the best so far, until I read the next one, and then I think that's the best one. I'm tempted to keep all of his books and read them again, but my grandmother taught me that it is better to share.
