Murder at Newmarket

At Newmarket, a champion horse is worth a fortune. A dead trainer is worth a silence.
June 1933. A threatened training agreement places the future of Midsummer Fire, a celebrated favorite, in doubt. Rumors of betting, withdrawal and sabotage spread through Lindum Lodge, where every stable hand knows the value of a minute and every owner has something at stake.
Then the horse's humane, methodical trainer is killed, and the scandal points towards the race. Julian Ashcombe and Clara Bennett enter a world of early gallops, private ledgers and professional loyalties, where routine is both a comfort and a cover. The obvious motive is money. The real danger may lie in something far more personal: a reputation about to be destroyed.
Clara must test what was seen, written and handled before the fatal morning. Julian must look beyond the easy story of a wager gone wrong. With the Royal Meeting drawing near, they have little time to expose the person who turned a trusted routine into murder.
