A dead hitchhiker, empty canisters found at the bottom of several trucks, and the murder of a harmless mechanic are the bizarre events that lead ex-jockey Freddie Croft to suspect that his transport company, Driving Force, is involved in drug smuggling, or something far worse.

There is a lot of very close observations and analysis involved for the hero to ultimately unravel a rather insidious and diabolical plot in the horse racing world, a plot to disable by sickness Perative horses. Frances keeps finding ingenious corners of the horse racing culture in England as his setting, and this story is layered with the language of computer attack as well. It's filled with intrigue and it's filled with the usual acute observation of human behavior and motives that is so great in Francis. Preble is one of the best, the very best, readers of books in the world, I think And his performance here is up to his usual stellar standard.

Unraveling a weird plot

Although his computer descriptions make the book anachronistic, his plot and character development are excellent. A very talented narrator makes this well worth listening.
