Mark Shillingford is happy in his life as a race commentator. Most of all he loves getting to call races in which his sister is one of the jockeys riding a speedy Thoroughbred. All that comes to an end with the apparent suicide of his twin.
Race fixing, blackmail, affairs, threats, betting, and a behind the scenes look at what goes into producing a seamless racing program for the live television audience. All things combine for a face paced read that will make you gallop through the chapters.
This is the first novel I have read by Felix Francis and he does a good job of continuing the legacy of his father Dick Francis.
