Glamorous socialite Moira Pembroke is found brutally murdered,
face down in a sack of potting compost. Her husband, multimillionaire
Malcolm Pembroke, is a man of strong passions whose colourful life has
included five wives and nine children. Moira was his fifth wife and
their marriage estranged Malcolm from his favourite son, Ian. But it
is to Ian that Malcolm now turns for help.
They agree to meet at the Newmarket Yearling Sales and instantly the
two men are whirled into what turns out to be a horrifying race to find
Moira's murderer before the maniac can strike again. Greed, malice and
lethal ploys lie ahead of father and son as they track the killer remorselessly.
Only occasionally are they able to enjoy themselves at some of the world's
top racecourses - but danger and peril are a constant threat.
