Description
Tim Ekaterin, a financier at London’s Ekaterin Bank, stakes £5 million on the future of Sandcastle, a champion racehorse whose value seems destined to rise at stud. When the horse’s first foals are born with mysterious deformities, the investment threatens to destroy a respected breeding operation—and Tim begins to suspect that more than bad luck is involved. As financial pressure gives way to danger and murder, he must navigate the secretive worlds of banking, bloodstock, and racing to uncover the truth. Combining meticulous racing detail with a slow-burning mystery and sharp psychological tension, the novel explores ambition, responsibility, deception, and the high cost of taking a calculated risk.
