Steeplechase jockey Christmas "Kit" Fielding has had more than his share of close calls both on and off the course. But trouble hits close to home when a grudge between his family and his sister's in-laws turns into a blood feud.



Book Synopsis



Steeplechase jockey Christmas "Kit" Fielding is no stranger to close calls, both on and off the course. But when a long-standing grudge between his family and his sister's in-laws turns into a devastating blood feud, Kit finds himself facing the race of a lifetime.

As the Fieldings, Kim and Kit, become entangled in a bitter dispute over their family's stables, Kit finds himself facing the race of a lifetime. Meanwhile, the retired racehorse North Face, previously owned by Captain Kirkwood's daughter, gains attention as financial troubles loom over the Kirkwood family. Secrets unravel, alliances are forged, and Kit must navigate the treacherous track of horse racing while untangling the mysterious web of deception surrounding him.

Dick Francis, renowned for his thrilling tales, delivers once again with his trademark style and attention to detail, immersing readers in a world where danger collides with courage.

About the Author



Dick Francis was born in South Wales in 1920. He was a young rider of distinction winning awards and trophies at horse shows throughout the United Kingdom. At the outbreak of World War II he joined the Royal Air Force as a pilot, flying fighter and bomber aircraft including the Spitfire and Lancaster. He became one of the most successful postwar steeplechase jockeys, winning more than 350 races and riding for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother. After his retirement from the saddle in 1957, he published an autobiography, The Sport of Queens, before going on to write more than forty acclaimed books. A three-time Edgar Award winner, he also received the prestigious Crime Writers' Association's Cartier Diamond Dagger, was named Grand Master by the Mystery Writers of America, and was awarded a CBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours List in 2000. He died in February 2010, at age eighty-nine, and remains among the greatest thriller writers of all time.
