Description
Mason is a barrister who finds his greatest freedom in the saddle, competing as an amateur jockey on Britain’s demanding steeplechase circuit. When a fellow rider is brutally murdered, the worlds of law and racing collide, and the evidence points to one of Mason’s own colleagues—a celebrated champion jockey. As he investigates, Mason is drawn into a dangerous web of rivalry, suspicion, and violence that threatens both the racing community and his own safety. Rich in authentic racing detail and driven by sharp suspense, this gripping mystery explores ambition, loyalty, and the perilous underside of the sport.
