About this listen

With the stakes so high, racing can be a deadly business...best-selling author Felix Francis' latest thriller!

Chris Rankin is a doctor, a specialist in emergency medicine at Cheltenham Hospital, but a doctor who also has health problems.

A smartly dressed man has been found unconscious at the local racecourse and is rushed to the hospital, where he subsequently dies. But who is he? Where does he come from? He had no form of identification on him, and no one claims the body.

Doctor Rankin is intrigued by the nameless dead man, obsessed even, and starts asking questions. However, someone doesn't want the questions answered and will go to any lengths to prevent it, including attempting murder. But no one else believes that someone tried to kill Chris, leaving the doctor no option but to discover who the nameless man is and why he died, preferably before following him into an early grave.

I have no idea how correct the medical content is, Felix is continuing in the fast paced addictive style of his late parents. couldn't stop listening as the storyline developed. Excellent narrator hope she will narrate more audio books. highly recommended. I am officially a Francis addict

I enjoyed the story. I loved that it tackled some difficult topics. Was a bit slow in places and the story needed to be moved on. It was amazing to have a female lead character in the Felix Frances novel. The narrator was not the best. Please get someone like Zara Ram.

decent story

I started listening to this audiobook after being gifted it by a good friend who called it 'gripping'. I then looked at some of the reviews and wished I hadn't. I found true empathy for anyone who has suffered from depression. Never have I read (or heard) of a main character's true struggle in such realistic terms. I think some of the reviews have been left by very lucky people who have never suffered.
That said I thought this was a thriller truly worthy of the surname of 'Francis'. Well done Felix, your Dad would have been proud you have elevated an adventure/thriller into a new thought provoking realm.

I very much look forward to hearing more.

To anyone in two minds as to whether to buy this book (after seeing the negative reviews) I would say give it a go and try and empathise with the main cha rate instead of judging her. No wonder people having had 'mental health' issues feel there is a stigma attached if those reviews are anything to go by!

Gripping!!!

Different, heavy going in places but worth finishing. The "Americanisms" are irritating ie cell for mobile and pants for trousers
