About this listen

A beautiful Italian girl driving home in an open top sports car, a little boy playing on a South Coast beach and the senior steward of the Jockey Club on his way to a press reception in Baltimore. One after the other they suffer the same nightmare ordeal - kidnapping. But there is one thing connecting these particular cases. For the Italian girl is a jockey, and the little boy an only son of a racehorse owner.

A picture of the person behind this international chain of crime starts to emerge - a lover of Verdi, a man with a cool and calculating brain and an aficionado of the racing world. Andrew Douglas, brought in to advise and help the victims and their families, proceeds with all his customary diplomacy and courage. Only to find himself playing a dangerous part: the role usually reserved for his clients.

The voice sounds old and not feminine

The book is great and the reader is doing a good job. But it feels like the voice are older than the character which is in his 30s. My girlfriend just couldn’t listen along with me. Maybe time to get a younger sounding voice for the Dick Francis book? Maybe also time to get people for each of the characters? The voice wasn’t great for Alicia and that also didn’t go down well with my girlfriend. Would love to introduce Dick Francis to friends but you need better readers and also female readers

Another winner by Dick Francis

Another winner. Tony Britton is excellent with his performance. You can easily visualize the characters from his distinctive way with each voice. The story is about a man working to recover kidnap victims and a jockey is kidnapped. The flow of the story keeps you waiting for the next happening and as usual, Dick Francis lets you into the mind of the main character. His characters are always someone I'd like very much. #AmateurDetective #GlobeTrotting #clever #tagsgiving #sweepstakes
