Former Champion Jockey Dick Francis
evokes the atmosphere of a racing stable poisoned by the stench of corruption.

Was it dope? Or was the reason so twisted it didn't even bear thinking about?

nice paperback first edition/copy of a rare and much sought after Dick Francis title and early novel.The author's second novel,looked upon as a modern horse-racing
classic.Highly sought after and an elusive
1st edn in hardback - only 2,500 copies, even more uncommon in it's first paperback
