Dick Francis's Gamble / Felix Francis 519 p.

Nicholas "Foxy" Foxton, a former jockey, is out for the day at the Grand National races when his co-worker, Herb Kovak, is shot right in front of him. He and his friend are both independent financial advisors for Lyall & Black. Unravelling Kovak's death reveals depths of Kovak which makes Foxton wonder just how much did he know this American. As with Francis he loads lots of detail about the world of high finance into the mystery. This may be useful for readers who prefer less blood letting in their fast paced mysteries.
