Publisher's Synopsis
When the Turkish Jockey Club President is killed in Istanbul and the first Lady Chairman of the British Horseracing Authority is murdered at Newmarket races, the two deaths appear random. But amateur jockey-turned-stud farm manager and bloodstock agent, Andrew Dixon, discovers the awful truth. Andrew realises the relentless commercial pressure in modern racing and breeding is distorting the sport he loves into something more sinister, something his boss - an aristocrat who attended Eton and served in the SAS - is delighted to exploit. With Europe still reeling from the financial crisis and the overproduction of racehorses. But when billions are at stake, intimidation, blackmail, and murder are just means to an end.
