A sudden death shatters the festive throng at a famous English racecourse, drawing a sharp line between the thrill of the sport and the shadow of murder. In the crisp air of Edwardian England, suspicion swirls among the elegant crowds and behind the closed doors of a country house, where every whispered conversation could conceal a motive. The tension mounts as an intricate web of secrets and ambitions is slowly unravelled, setting the stage for a meticulous murder investigation that probes far deeper than appearances suggest. This is a British mystery novel that captures the refined yet charged atmosphere of early twentieth-century society, where the stakes at the racetrack are matched only by the peril lurking in drawing rooms and stables alike. Blending the intrigue of a horse racing mystery with the subtle complexities of an English country house murder, the story immerses readers in a world where every character harbours secrets and every clue may prove decisive. The narrative's brisk pace and keen psychological insight recall the finest traditions of golden age crime novels, while the presence of a determined female detective lends a fresh and compelling perspective to the genre. For those who savour the elegant puzzles of classic whodunit books, this tale offers a captivating glimpse into a vanished era-one where class, ambition, and jealousy intersect with fatal consequences. It stands out among Edwardian detective fiction for its deft plotting and evocative sense of place, inviting both mystery enthusiasts and collectors to lose themselves in a labyrinth of suspicion and deduction. This book was out of print for decades and is now republished by Alpha Editions. It has been restored for today's and future generations.
