There is so much more to racing than the day of the horse race. There is health care, trades, favors, enormous amounts of money and quite often some shading dealings.
Tim Ekaterin is a young banker, in a family firm that must prove his worth as the road he came by to arrive there involved an alcoholic father and a mother with a gambling obsession that cost the family all that they had. Naturally there are some there that believe he will follow the road of his parents and take the bank with him in the process.
An opportunity arises for a large investment in a top racehorse that will be put to stud. The potential money is astounding by 1982 standards, the year of publication.
Many twist and turns with deceit and intrigue. Highly recommend.
