Stalking Horse

Straight from the Winner's Circle, the greatest jockey of all time draws on his vast experience on and off the track to spin one of the most suspenseful mysteries of the year....

Coley Killebrew was one of the best jockeys in the business -- until a race-fixing scandal got him barred from the track. Now the man responsible for blackening his name, racing steward Raymond Starbuck, offers Coley a chance to redeem his reputation. All Coley has to do is investigate some underworld characters who are muscling in on a track in New Orleans, resist the irresistible redhead he loved and lost. Francie Dorn, and reckon with Lea, Starbuck's leggy blonde daughter, who's its adept at seducing men as she is at blowing them away....
