Publisher's summary

Wealthy racing yard owner Edward de Jersey has spent the last few years of his life reaping the rewards of his criminal mastermind past and spending his free time priming his star horse, Royal Flush, for a Derby win. Having successfully pulled off some of the most lucrative heists in history as 'The Colonel', at the height of his activity, he was one of the most prolific criminals of his time.

But, when his financial advisor invests his fortune in an internet company that crashes quickly after, he is left with no choice but to return to his old ways. This time, with the biggest target of all in mind...

Great story and great characters

I love horses and I enjoy great robbery stories. This was a great mix of the two.

Ten Stars...!

Loved it!!! What a story. Couldn't stop listening! This is why Lynda La Plante is the queen of mysteries, thrillers, and police procedurals. Loved the characters, circumstances, locales, and how the story revolved around horse racing and breeding as well. As usual, can't wait until your next Audible book Ms. La Plante!

Skipped to the end.

Narrator was very good. Story strained credulity. I finally lost patience and went to the last couple of chapters, just to see how it turned out.

It wasn’t what I expected.

I didn’t like the characters. The behavior was not believable as it was written. And it certainly didn’t have much to do with horse racing.
