What's the worse way to die At the end of a rope driven by your own shame & despair Or savaged in the jaws of a black-hearted stallion who has hated you for years If only the bankrupt gambler & the stable girl were alive to give us the answer... Jockey Rob Harding has found something better than riding a big winner
- breeding one. When his two-year-old colt Goldeneye takes the July Stakes at Newmarket in some style it seems he can lift Rob's failing business out of the mire. But there's a tragedy waiting round the corner... Rob's head girl Ivana a horse-mad beauty from the Czech Republic would also revel in Goldeneye's triumph except for the terrifying reappearance of her sadistic ex-lover Milos. She's run a long way to escape from him
- but it looks like she hasn't run far enough...
