Jump in the saddle with a sure thing.

My favorite of all Dick Francis mysteries

Outstanding. With excellent narration. The carefully crafted cast of characters and the intricate mystery make this a most entertaining book.

One of the best

Classic Francis storytelling, and the narrator was excellent! He really let the reader live the story.

Penetrating

Francis stays on the margins of racing in this one, but places his character dead center in the middle of a slightly strange and intriguing family, where the heroes role is to save

One of Mr. Francis’s best.

Not much to dislike. Decent people getting caught up etc. final resolutions are never as satisfying as you would hope but this as close as they come. Rest in peace, Dick. You done good! Again….

One of my favorites

I love the main character here. Great hero. Wish I could find another like him.
