On Royal Ascots first day, bookmaker Ned Talbot watches helplessly as a string of favourites come in. With the punters totting up their winnings, he counts his losses.

Then an old man steps forward with a very different claim. The father Ned never knew - believed to have been killed in a car crash long ago - is standing before him.

Barely an hour later, Neds newly-found father is dying in Ascots car park. Stabbed by an unknown assailant, he warns Ned: be very careful.

But of whom? Of what?

Ned races to discover the truth behind his fathers disappearance and sudden reappearance. Its not just money on the line now. Its lives . . .

Packed with intrigue and hair-raising suspense, Even Money is just one of the many blockbuster thrillers from legendary crime writer Dick Francis.
