Аннотация

At thirty-five, Freddie Croft has retired as a steeplechase jockey and now runs a fleet of motor horseboxes transporting runners from their stables to the races, or brood mares to the stud farms. One of the hard and fast rules for all his drivers is never to pick up a hitchhiker, but of course one day they do, and by the time they reach base the passenger is dead.
This unwelcome corpse on his doorstep sweeps Freddie into a complicated conspiracy where little is as it seems, and where, like it or not, he has to fight to save not just his business but his very life.
Organised, intelligent and determined he may be, but punching at shifting shadows, trying to outwit adversaries whose existence he only suspects, not knowing what to believe or whom to trust, these intangibles take him into dangers very different from the old familiar perils of jump racing, and force him to search for unexpected answers.
Like each of his bestselling thrillers, Driving Force will excite and entertain readers throughout the world and in countless languages. As The Times said of him: ‘He is a writer of champion class.’
