Summary

When jockey Martin Stukely dies following a fall in a steeplechase at Cheltenham races, he accidentally embroils his friend Gerard Logan in a perilous search for a stolen videotape.

Gerard Logan is a glass-blower on the verge of widespread acclaim for his work. He has long been accustomed to the frightful dangers inherent in molten glass and maintaining a glass-making furnace, but now he is suddenly faced with a series of unexpected threats, first to his livelihood, then to his courage, and finally, to his life.

Fantastic as ever

This is a story I have never heard before and it was as good as all DF’s stories are. The narrator is fabulous and brings the stories to life every time. I do hope he reads all DF’ s and his acting abilities are superb. Thank you Bolinda.

Shattered but not broken!

It flowed from start to finish with precise narration rising and falling with the required emphasis.

Tremendous

Once again Dick Francis moulds a tale of humanity,sadness,humour, and violence all woven within the artistry of wonderful story. The aftershocks from this story will reverberate for some time to come.

Page-turner

As usual - a thrills and spills read - this time only peripherally about horse-racing.

Excellent as ever

Always a good novel from Dick or/and Felix Francis. What makes it all the more exciting for me is the excellent reading voices of Tony Britton and Martin Jarvis. Wish they read more novels by other authors for you. I never tire of listening to the "Francis" novels.
