Race

A Novel

Race is a window into death and life investigated by a detective who has his own choice to make between heaven and hell.

Roman Diego, a thoroughbred assistant trainer, is found dead in his tack room at the Rainier Meadows Racetrack. Is the confused, barely covered young woman who had awakened next to the dead man a killer?

As Detective David James investigates the death of Roman Diego, a syringe containing a mystery liquid is discovered. The mystery deepens as the list of suspects gets longer. Who would want to kill Roman Diego, one of the "good guys"?

In this raw, romantic, and redemptive novel, David James searches for a common denominator between the suspects and the victim as the motive becomes harder to ignore.

Fabulous Listen! Great Story!

Fantastic story with great characters and an intriguing storyline.
The author gave us a real feel for the characters. Even the ones who were eliminated early on in the story. I liked how the characters faith was interwoven into the story. Highly recommend for lovers of horse racing as well, as those who know nothing of horse racing.
