Description

The third thrilling mystery and adventure novel from the Blue Peter award-winning author of DEAD MAN'S COVEAce detective Laura Marlin's two greatest loves in life are detective novels and animals, so she is ecstatic when her uncle agrees to let her keep a horse after they rescue it, crazed with fear, from an overturned horsebox. But he has a condition. Before he will allow her to adopt it they have to find its former owner, just to ensure that it hasn't been stolen. A visit to Newmarket to investigate the thoroughbred's origins leads Laura and her best friend, Tariq, to the Kentucky Derby in the US. After Laura witnesses a crime nobody else believes, she finds herself caught up in the dark and murky world of race-fixing. But who can she turn to when she hardly dares trust the evidence of her own eyes?
