Gerard Logan is a talented glass artisan whose life spirals into chaos after the tragic death of his close friend, Martin Stukely, a celebrated jockey.
After his friend is killed in a horse-racing accident, Gerard grapples with his grief and the memories of his creative partnership with Martin. The story shifts between between Gerard's glass gallery, the bustling racetrack, and the somber atmosphere of Martin's funeral, where the impact of his death reverberates through the community. But when Gerard discovers that a robbery has occurred at Martin's home, he finds himself embroiled in a deadly search for a stolen videotape—a videotape that just might destroy his own life.

Dick Francis was born in South Wales in 1920. He was a young rider of distinction winning awards and trophies at horse shows throughout the United Kingdom. At the outbreak of World War II he joined the Royal Air Force as a pilot, flying fighter and bomber aircraft including the Spitfire and Lancaster.
He became one of the most successful postwar steeplechase jockeys, winning more than 350 races and riding for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother. After his retirement from the saddle in 1957, he published an autobiography, The Sport of Queens, before going on to write more than forty acclaimed books, including the New York Times bestsellers Even Money and Silks.
A three-time Edgar Award winner, he also received the prestigious Crime Writers’ Association’s Cartier Diamond Dagger, was named Grand Master by the Mystery Writers of America, and was awarded a CBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours List in 2000. He died in February 2010, at age eighty-nine, and remains among the greatest thriller writers of all time.
