(a different cover)Proprietor of a stud farm in the breathtaking region of Australia's Snowy Mountians? Or a muck-raking stable boy in Yorkshire? The Earl of October persuades young Australian Danny Roke to accept the English alternative. It's the change of scene and the challenge that pushes Danny undercover, on the scent of a suspected racehorse dope scandal. But the pain involved, dealing with vicious swindlers and the Earl's two attractive daughters, could overturn all his pleasure in the chase.
