      When Kelly Hughes rides the favourite into second place, he gets penalised. Not only has he lost the race, but also his licence, as the Jockey Club suspends him - believing he threw the race.

      Only he knows that the problem lay with the horse''s performance, not his own. Suspecting he was framed, Kelly sets about finding out how it was done, and then who might have done it.

      But the closer he gets to the perpetrators, the more danger he finds himself in. Now there''s more than his reputation and career at stake.

      There''s also his life . . .

      Packed with intrigue and hair-raising suspense, Enquiry is just one of the many blockbuster thrillers from legendary crime writer Dick Francis.
