Publisher's Summary

Sid Halley, the ex-champion jockey turned investigator who appears in Odds Against and Whip Hand, is back and facing new dilemmas and dangers. The opening finds him having uncovered an obnoxious crime committed by a friend whom he, and everyone else, has held in affection bordering on love. On the morning set for the opening of the friend's trial, at which Sid is due to be called as a witness, other people's miseries explode and send him spinning into pulverizing days of hard, rational detection, and heart-searching torments. Troubled, courageous, and unwilling to admit defeat, for Sid Halley it is business as usual.

loving my Dick Francis books!

great book! I like the reader/storyteller too. This recording is better than some of the others but the sound quality is not great. You can hear the sound quality changing with every sitting they did of the reading. some bits have a very dull sound others are nice and crisp.
