**Felix Francis continues his father's New York Times- bestselling
legacy with another edge-of-your-seat read that's classic Francis.
**
Nicholas Foxy Foxton, a former jockey who suffered a career- ending
injury, is out for a day at the Grand National races when his friend and
coworker Herb Kovak is murdered, execution style, right in front of
him-and 60,000 other potential witnesses. Foxton and Kovak were both
independent financial advisers at Lyall & Black, a firm specializing in
extreme-risk investments.
As he struggles to come to terms with Kovak's seemingly inexplicable
death, Foxton begins to question everything, from how well he knew his
friend to how much he understands about his employer. Was Kovak's murder
a case of mistaken identity...or something more sinister?
