A gripping new racing thriller from John Francome. It s summer, Royal Ascot, and life is good for young trainer Simon Waterford. He has inherited his father s top-class yard, his brilliant two-year-old has just won the Coventry Stakes and he is soon to marry his beautiful half-Brazilian girlfriend. But Mariana has a secret which would wreck her hopes of marriage and which Geoff has found out. And he has threatened to tell Simon. On their way back from the races, two rough-looking young men pass lewd comments about Mariana. There s not much of a brawl it s over too quickly and is hardly even-handed but it leaves Mariana in a sea of blood tending to Simon s wounded face, while Geoff lies dead on the floor. It s a tragedy, of course, but Mariana can t help but feel relieved. Her secret is safe, for now...
