Story
Architect and family man Lee Morris never gave much thought to the shares he inherited of the Stratton Park racecourse, the multi-million dollar property owned by the powerful Stratton family. His mother had first received the shares to keep her quiet about the abuse she had suffered at the hands of her first husband, Keith Stratton. Now, much to Lee's chagrin, he is being drawn into the thick of the Stratton family squabbles as they wage a furious debate over the future of the race track.

Story
The catastrophic power of a giant hurricane can raise coastal waves 30 feet high and blow through houses at devastating speeds. For TV meteorologist Perry Stuart, however, such predictions are hypothetical, as he chiefly predicts periods of English drizzle - until a fellow forecaster offers him a Caribbean hurricane-chasing ride in a small airplane as a holiday diversion. But a frightening accident teaches Stuart more secrets than wind speeds.

Publisher's Summary
Efter endnu et succesfuldt hestevæddeløb bliver Kit Fielding opsøgt af sin tvillingesøster, hvis mand er i problemer. En avis udgiver historier, der muligvis kan tvinge hans forretning til at lukke. Kit må lægge sine personlige problemer med søsterens mand til side og indvilliger i at hjælpe med at opklare mysteriet. En opgave, der bestemt ikke bliver ufarlig.
Dick Francis (1920-2010) var en britisk forfatter og jockey. Efter sin succesfulde karriere i hestevæddeløb og -træning dedikerede han sig til fiktionen og skrev sammen med sin kone utallige spændingsromaner i eget navn. Alle hans bøger drejer sig på den ene eller anden måde om personer i jockeybranchen.
