5.0 out of 5 stars A Super Read! Reviewer: Renee S. N.Y.C., August 9, 2009

This review is from: Decider (Kindle Edition)

Lee Morris is an unlikely hero for a Francis novel since he is married and has six sons, but he nevertheless lives up to the Francis standard. He is a quiet, thoughtful man, intelligent, of course, who is able to take control of a difficult situation and bring it to a successful conclusion. If this seems a bit stodgy, it isn't at all. There is Francis' usual drama and action, breathtaking at points, and a very satisfying ending. A super read!

Your actions are controlled by who you are... Great reading. Deals with horses, a race course, and a stormy home life that begun by marrying young. The characters are well written and each personality well defined.

The major problem with Dick Francis novels is that they keep me from going to bed at a reasonable hour. His timing is impeccable and the suspense builds to the end.
