Publisher's Synopsis
Dick Francis, the bestselling master of mystery and suspense, takes you into the thrilling world of horse racing.
Hired to fly four racing buffs to the track, pilot Matt Shore expects it will be the kind of job he likes: quick and easy. That is until he's forced to make an emergency landing just minutes before the plane explodes.
Luckily nobody is hurt, but it isn't long before Matt realizes that he's caught up in a rat race among violent criminals, who are dead set on putting anyone who stands in their way on the wrong side of the odds.
