Another cracker of a story by DF

I like the way every one of DF’s stories are different, entertaining, and suspenseful but they all have a moral - rare these days
And l love Tony Britton’s voice!
Not to mention his reading and interpretation.

disappointing

not one of the best D F's silly story slow to start good end

My favourite of all the books

I really loved this story and Alex developed. one of Dick,'s best and an excellent narration.

A gripping story well read

I loved the reading: Tony Britten has perfect pitch and dramatic ease; too often one can be irritated by the reader.
I found the story very good both psychologically and dramatically.

Excellent book

Great story of thuggery and threat. As always, Tony Britton is simply the best narrator.

Fantastic Book

Have always loved this book, and the audio is fantastic. Tony Britton - what a great orator!

Bonecrack review

One of his best I think. Sons and fathers and their trials and tribulations with the love of horses thrown in Also murder and international skulduggery. What’s not to love and immerse yourself in a jolly good read or audio even better

thriller

loved it, first one I.heard with Tony Britton as narrator and I was hooked. thanks Audible please stock the full series

Not Dick Francis' best story

Excellent narration as always but the characters were more 2 dimensional than ever. The plot seemed a bit ridiculous but Tony Britton makes it listenable. Popcorn for the eardrums.
