Jockey Kelly Hughes and trainer Dexter Cranfield have been barred from racing—a devastating event for them both. The charge at the secret enquiry? Throwing a race for personal profit. It is a vicious frame-up, and worse, they have nowhere to turn to clear their names. Still, Hughes refuses to take the phony verdict lying down—even though his personal enquiry might have him lying down permanently.

    New York Times Book Review

  • “Highly ingenious.”

    Times Literary Supplement (London)

  • “As usual, Dick Francis is superb in his depiction of the horse-racing world, full of greed and betrayal. Equally superb is the clarity of expression that [Ralph Cosham] brings to the novel…The pacing is flawless.”

    " What little I know about horse racing I owe to Dick Francis--I really like the way he interweaves his stories. I try to out guess him. "

  • 3 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 5 Anna Macdonald | 10/19/2013

    " Really 3.5 stars. I do enjoy a good Dick Francis, and I'm bummed that I've read nearly all. "

  • 3 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 5 Beverly | 10/5/2013

    " As usual very enjoyable. Francis is the master of creating engaging and likeable protagonists. Not my favorite but certainly enjoyable. "

  • 4 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 5 David Macpherson | 9/27/2013

    " The mystery wasn't much but the world he created was great. The steeple chase world is so well drawn and the class issues were fascinating. "

  • 4 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 5 Deirdre S. | 7/28/2013

    " A great story about a miscarriage of justice, as a steeplechase jockey is framed for offenses that result in his racing license being withdrawn and his reputation mangled. This is sure to mark the end of his career unless he can figure out who has it in for him and the trainer he rides for. "

  • 3 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 5 woody | 5/9/2013

    " This Francis novel somehow seems less eventful or perhaps tense to me than most of his others. The narrator, Tony Britton, does a fine job, including good work with an American accent. "

  • 5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 Candace Camp | 9/29/2011

    " This is one of my favorite Dick Francis books. I particularly liked the pairing in this one of the jockey and the snobby trainer's daughter. His couples are frequently kind of different, and I like that about his books. "

    " The "Recorded Books" guy reading it was pretty bad, which is unusual for that company. The story was very compelling. I only "listen" to Dick Francis--I can't stand reading him for some reason. I really enjoy them on cd in the car though. "
