Description
Discover the classic mystery from Dick Francis, one of the greatest thriller writers of all time 'Dick Francis keeps you in suspense in every chapter, you are immersed in the story' 5***** Reader Review 'Really gripping with lots of twists and turns. A fast-paced thriller' 5***** Reader Review ______ Ex-jockey Sid Halley works as a private detective, using his racing knowledge to solve crimes that baffle the police. He's asked to investigate the possible doping of the horses of George Casper - a thoroughbred trainer whose once-successful mounts have been failing spectacularly on the racetrack. At the same time, he learns that a conman has left his ex-wife Jenny facing a jail sentence over a fake charity, while the Jockey Club want him to investigate certain powerful syndicates who may be acting in a ruthless and illegal manner. Quickly, Sid discovers that each of his investigations is entirely unwelcome. But he isn't put off easily - not even when a threat is made that could change his life. Three dangerous cases, three ways to die - Sid is back on home turf . . . Packed with intrigue and hair-raising suspense, Whip Hand is just one of the many blockbuster thrillers from legendary crime writer Dick Francis. Praise for Dick Francis: 'The narrative is brisk and gripping and the background researched with care . . . the entire story is a pleasure to relish' Scotsman 'Dick Francis's fiction has a secret ingredient - his inimitable knack of grabbing the reader's attention on page one and holding it tight until the very end' Sunday Telegraph 'Still the master' Racing Post 'The master of suspense and intrigue' Country Life
