"Six months after his wife leaves him, Sid Halley, one of the best steeplechase jockeys in Great Britain, is thrown from a horse and has his hand stepped on. The injury leaves him unable to race and inspires a downward spiral into depression.

"Amazing what bodily injury could do for a man. A fall from a racehorse had left brilliant jockey Sid Halley dangerously depressed, with a wrecked hand and the need for a new career. And now a bullet wound was helping him find one. He'd been with a detective agency since his racing accident, but it wasn't until some two-bit hoodlum drilled a slug into his side that he was sent out on a case of his own. That was where he met Zanna Martin, a woman who just might make life worth living again. But it was an even-money bet that he'd be killed before he had the chance."@en .
