I love Dick Francis, but this one is not one of his best. But often, him on a bad day is better than some others on their best days!

A very involved plot. Interesting to the end. A longer book that many of his others, which suits me fine. He weaves horse racing, money, family & greed.

I have enjoyed every Dick Francis novel I have ever read--and that was all that I could get my hands on. You learn something from an expert about the world of horse racing when you read Francis, and I personally find it very satisfying that he always makes right win in the end.

Every time I read one of Dick Francis' books, I think to myself, "This is the best one yet." And then I read the next one, and have the same thought. The same is true of this story. I was kept in suspence as to "who did it" right up to the end, and enjoyed the characters as I read along.
