Description
When the horses belonging to a troubled princess begin turning up dead, each killed by a crossbow bolt, champion jockey Kit Fielding is drawn into a dangerous investigation far beyond the racetrack. As threats against the princess’s invalid husband intensify, a ruthless business partner pursues a scheme involving arms manufacturing, placing wealth, power, and human lives at risk. Against the vivid backdrop of British steeplechasing, the story combines high-stakes suspense, racing expertise, loyalty, and moral courage in a tightly plotted mystery. The result is a dark, atmospheric thriller marked by sharp characterization, intricate intrigue, and authentic insight into the world of thoroughbred racing.
