Note
The book was written by Patricia Reiss Brooks, A Tangle of Sex, Murder and Blue-blooded Horses. The plot follows horseman Ike Cherny as he attempts to make his filly a World Champion while surrounded by mysterious and dangerous characters. Because an experienced horsewoman writes the story, you can be confident that the backdrop of the often-unscrupulous competitive horse world is very credible. Her thorough account of life at a stable is surprisingly true for a work of fiction. The narrative is deliciously scary, depicting a tranquil Connecticut stable caught in the middle of a black cloud of gruesome killings and hazardous waste disposal. You could stay up late to read another chapter as the narrative deepens
