Publisher's Summary

The privileged world of horse racing, filled with sleek thoroughbreds, burnished leather, and the silken sheen of jockeys’ colors, is a wonderful place to spend a few hours. Let bestselling, internationally popular author Dick Francis take you to the immaculate stables of the de Brescou estate, where dark forces are lurking.

Someone is killing the de Brescou racehorses with a “bolt” gun, shooting them silently, leaving no clues. Before the noble family, which includes his fiancée, is torn apart, jockey Kit Fielding must find the assassin.

There are higher stakes than the horses, though. The de Brescous could lose control of their family business as well.

Bolt spent 13 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list. From regal countesses to dapper racing officials, it puts you in the company of truly intriguing characters.

“The plot races along wonderfully well, right up to a jolting twist at the end.”—Publishers Weekly

Smashing!!!

Dick Francis does not disappoint! Great follow up sequel to “Break In”. I read the books years ago but I’m finding the audible version equally if not more enjoyable. Narrator did a great job with the different voices and the quality of the listen was good… highly recommend!
