Steeplechase jockey Derek Franklin has had more broken bones than he cares to count, but it seems his latest injury could very well bring his days on the racecourse to a screeching halt. Then his brother dies in an accident, leaving Derek as the sole heir of his brother's business, his horses, his mistress -- and his enemies.

Derek's brother was keeping more secrets than anyone knew. Now Derek must recover one and a half million pounds' worth of missing diamonds, find out who wanted his brother dead, who had betrayed his trust and how his horses were being used.
