Product Description

To the Jockey Club, the racing world would be a better place without Julius Apollo Filmer. An expert in corruption with a devastating line in witness intimidation, and proving to be a slippery character to put behind bars. Baffled, they call in undercover security agent Tor Kelsey to keep an unflinching eye on Filmer and his associates. A mission that takes him from the finest of English racecourses to the wild Canadian interior, on a luxury transcontinental train journey to end them all. On board, a troupe of actors are playing out a murder mystery to amuse their wealthy passengers. Ideal cover for a secret investigator with secrets of his own. And ideal cover, as it turns out, for an ice cool blackmailer with murder on his mind.

This book was a pleasure to read and was almost impossible to put down. I am not an expert on horses, nor need to be. The amount of research that goes into DF's books, and the excellent style of writing allows the reader to enter worlds they may not have opportunity to do so without this book. It has started new interests in me such as exploring Canada by train, going to a murder mystery weekend and reading another Dick Francis novel asap.

The Edge (Dick Francis Library)
I have read all of Dick Francis' stable of books and The Edge is one of my favourites, hence purchasing a copy for my kindle (my hard copy has fallen to pieces). His books are easy to read and the plots are all different. The Edge is singularly different as one knows the criminal but finding the evidence to convict or warn him off from racing is difficult as he appears to be charming but with some very nasty friends.

Dull Edge 6 Mar 2010
By Aufpet
Format:Paperback
I used to be a fan of Dick Francis' thrillers, and still consider his 1960's titles good enough yarns, well worth reading and keeping. Sadly, he then tended to follow the same and, over the years, ever more tired formula - horse racing, hero, romance - which became, at least where this reader is concerned, very tedious and unexciting. What used to be a pleasure deteriorated into something of a chore. Stick to the early titles!
