Andrew Douglas's business is to find kidnap victims and return them to their loved ones. However, three horse racing related kidnappings in a row is too much for him. Almost. The action races from England to Washington DC to Italy. He flirts with danger and his name is also on the wanted list as the next kidnap victim.
One of the kidnap victims is a pretty Italian jockey and she becomes the lover interest in this novel. However, before he can win the lady, Andrew has to outwit the kidnapper to put wrongs to rights.
Once again, Dick Francis takes us on a ride into the horse racing world, and once again he delivers the high quality that we have come to expect from his novels.
8/10 for me.
