The Dick Francis novels are of a consistently high standard and this 1964 outing is no exception to that. Time has not dulled the thrill of the writing. Mysterious accidents start happening to jockeys and one man is killed while another is seriously injured. Robb Finn begins to investigate these happenings and he soon finds himself in a dangerous world.
Robb Finn is a jockey too and when the accidents start happening to other jockeys in his circle he gets some extra rides. Then his rides begin to lose and rumours start to circulate that Robb has lost his nerve.

8/10 for me.
