**Whip Hand** A former jockey turned investigator is pulled into a tangle of fraud, betrayal, and buried grudges within the racing world he once ruled. When a routine case turns perilous, he must outwit enemies who know exactly how to exploit his vulnerabilities. Survival demands both cunning and courage—on and off the track. **Rat Race** A charter pilot discovers that danger comes standard when your passengers are bookmakers, trainers, and owners with everything to lose. After a fatal crash upends his routine flights, he’s drawn into a web of sabotage and revenge. To clear his name, he must uncover the truth before he becomes the next target. **Forfeit** A struggling journalist stumbles onto a story that ties a seemingly small mystery to powerful people desperate to keep their secrets buried. As threats escalate, his search for answers becomes a fight for justice—and his own safety. Every clue brings him closer to the truth and deeper into danger. **High Stakes** A talented craftsman of luxury betting gear is caught in a ruthless scheme that threatens both his business and his family. When blackmail and intimidation close in, he refuses to fold, launching his own risky investigation. In a world where leverage is everything, he must gamble his wits against hardened criminals. **Twice Shy** Two brothers, years apart, are drawn into a deadly chase over a computer program that could tilt the betting world on its axis. What begins as a quiet job explodes into kidnapping, threats, and a race against time. Each must confront danger head-on, relying on nerve and ingenuity to survive.
