Book excerpt: The debut novel from the New York Times–bestselling “master of crime fiction and equine thrills” features an investigation into the death of a jockey (The Atlantic Monthly). Dick Francis, Edgar Award–winning master of mystery and suspense, takes you into the thrilling world of horse racing. Steeplechaser Alan York knows well the dangers of the sport. But when his best friend and rival jockey Bill Davidson takes a fall in the middle of a race and doesn’t get up again, Alan discovers it was no accident. Someone rigged a tripwire to take down the running horse. The more Alan investigates, the more he suspects that there is more to the plot than just murderous horseplay.
