First Impression. No Inscriptions, minor bump to spine ends. Dustwrapper not price-clipped, slight wrinkling to head of spine. 273pp. A bomb scare at Aintree halted the Grand National in 1997 and the racecourse was evacuated; twenty-two years earlier, Dick Francis had written a short story describing such an event at another course. Now, for the first time, Dick Francis has compiled a volume of short stories, the settings ranging from the National Hunt Festival at Cheltenham, where a middle-aged owner falls hopelessly in love with her jockey, to the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs, where the demon drink and wilting willpower take their toll. There are diverse characters from bookmakers to news editors, from crooked lawyers to contract killers.
