About This Book

Sid Halley had been a champion jockey. But those days were lost in a fall beneath 500 pounds of horse that cost him his left hand and his racing future—and fractured his marriage in the bargain.

Now medical and engineering science have provided him with a marvelous mechanical substitute for his whip hand. But there are no substitutes in Halley 's life for his two great loves: his beautiful, bitchy ex-wife., and thoroughbred racing.

And they're both in trouble ..trouble that has led him into a battle of nerves with an elegant, vicious aristocrat—where losing could be worse than the loss of his hand, his career or his wife—and where surviving means a desperate confrontation with his own worst fear.
