First edition. As new unread copy in dust jacket. It's obvious that defense lawyer Geoffrey Mason's client, Julian Trent is guilty. He secretly hopes that a long sentence will be handed down to his conceited young client. Yet, Trent only receives eight years in prison. Mason heads to Sandown to slip on his racing silks. An amateur jockey, his true passion is found in the saddle on a Thoroughbred, pounding the turf in the heat of a steeplechase. When a fellow rider is brutally murdered, Mason's racing life becomes awfully close to his working life. The prime suspect is one of their own, champion jockey Steve Mitchell. Mason is reluctant to listen to Mitchell's pleas for legal advice, but soon finds himself at the center of a sinister web of threat and intimidation. Mason is left fighting a battle of right and wrong, and more immediately, a battle of life and death...his own!
