Overview: When a man is found murdered in the town of Walton in North Yorkshire, jockey coach, Finn McCarthy and student, Harriet Lucas, assume the murder is related to the man’s nefarious activities. James Clary was something of a local rogue, known for a having a complex love life and dodgy business practices. Finn and Harriet were previously involved in uncovering a betting scam which involved conditional jockeys in the area, but apart from the fact that James’s body was found in the layby near the town’s communal gallops and his brother is a conditional jockey, there is nothing to connect the death with racing.Besides, both have their sights set on romance and as the hot summer takes hold, Finn is romancing an actress and Hattie has an obsession with a TV chef, Jake Delamare, who she meets at the races.The police investigate James’s murder but Finn and Hattie are asked to undertake parallel inquiries by the racing authorities. Soon the pair find themselves catapulted into a murky world where danger lurks in every corner and no one is quite what they seem. As the police investigation stalls, Finn and Harriet realise that they hold several vital pieces of the jigsaw, which puts them in great danger.Thrilling and clever, another great racing thriller from Charlie De Luca.Other books by this author include; Rank Outsiders, The Gift Horse, Twelve in the Sixth and Making Allowances.
