To horse owners from around the world, The Great Transcontinental Mystery Race Train means racing, games, luxury, and big money purses. But not everyone sees it that way.
To Tor Kelsey, the Canadian extravaganza is one lousy job made even harder. A crackerjack young investigator for the British Jockey Club, Tor's undercover assignment is to get the goods on Julius Apollo Filmer, a reprehensible underworld racing thug. He had beaten a murder rap the year before, and the official types want him, badly.
Add a fake mystery to be performed on the train by real actors posing as junketeers, and Tor discovers the going can get more than tough.
Real murder and deadly sabotage make unscheduled appearances - and Tor must race to trap a killer with his own blue ribbon brand of deadly surprise...
