 Dick Francis, Edgar Award–winning master of mystery and suspense, takes you into the thrilling world of horse racing.

  

 With only his tormented past for company, Gene Hawkins is restlessly facing three lonely weeks of vacation. So when his boss asks for his help assisting millionaire Dave Teller locate a missing priceless breeding stallion he accepts, against his better judgement.



 But he gets more action than he bargains for when he draws the attention of his boss's daughter, advances from Teller's socialite wife and the deadly attention of the horse thieves who would be more than happy to put Hawkins out to pasture, permanently . . .
