Dick Francis once again delivers a great read. Ned Talbot is a small-time bookmaker (as in, "bookie" per U.S.) who finds himself tangled in a complex web of lies and crime when a stranger approaches him at Ascot races and wants to chat with him. This one is actually three mysteries in one, with a surprising chase to the finish. Worth a read, especially if you like first-person narrative.
