What you need to know before your trail
Bill Russell is acting as a volunteer steward at Warwick races when he confronts his worst nightmare – the violent death of his much-loved wife. But worse is to come when he is accused of killing her and hounded mercilessly by the media. His life begins to unravel completely as he loses his job and his home. Even his best friends turn against him, believing him guilty of the heinous crime in spite of the lack of compelling evidence.
Bill sets out to clear his name but finds that proving one’s innocence is not easy – one has to find the true culprit, and Bill believes he knows who it is. But can he prove it before he becomes another victim of the murderer.

Travel Guide
Booktrail your journey in Oxfordshire and Warwick
This is another in the series set in the world or horseriding and horseracing. Warwick course is the setting for much of this novel and indeed the murder. The neighbouring town of Banbury in Oxfordshire is where the police investigation takes them and where the main character is from.
The action soon turns to the law courts and for a case based on the investigation and murder. There is little of the horseracing world in this novel compared to earlier ones in the series. Few locations here as the story is focused on the trial and courtroom.
