Daniel Roke, taking on the job light-heartedly, finds himself headed for deadly danger. Yet the worst of his troubles comes not from his enemies but from the two devastating daughters of October launch.作者简介Dick Francis has written thirty-nine novels, a volume of short stories (Field of 13), his autobiography (The Sport of Queens) and the biography of Lester Piggott.
