Description
When an art dealer's misfortunes start to look premeditated, Sid Halley is back to investigate in the next Dick Francis novel--perfect for fans of Harlan Coben. Forty-nine-year-old Fabian Tulley is only trying to run his own art gallery in London's Mayfair in peace. But someone seems determined to ruin his life. Accused of selling a fake Alfred Munnings painting, he is unable to prove his innocence because the police are holding the piece as evidence. While running a retail sale at Cheltenham Racecourse, some of his other paintings are vandalized. Then a couple of men try to run him down in the racecourse parking lot. To make matters even worse, his clients are being threatened to stay away from his gallery, and his landlords are trying to cancel his lease. Everything is against him, but with someone threatening his life's work, Fabian is determined to fight back. With the help of Sid Halley, saving his business will prove to be the fight of his life.

Person
The New York Times, The London Sunday Times, and international bestselling author Felix Francis was born in Oxford, England, and is the son of the famous mystery author, Dick Francis and his wife, Mary Francis. Felix graduated from the University of London. His initial career led him to become a successful teacher of advanced-level physics. But he could not deny that his family's gift of writing had been passed along to him, and he started his second career--as an author--where he found his knowledge of physics was a great advantage. His many other accomplishments include being an expert outdoorsman, marksman and pilot. Felix Francis resides in England with his wife, Debbie; their family; and two Irish Setters and a Cavapoo.
