Harry Foster, a lawyer by training, is a crisis manager for a London firm. When a fire in the Newmarket stables of Oliver Chadwick slaughters seven very valuable horses-including the short-priced favourite for the Derby-Harry is thrust into the unpredictable world of thoroughbred horse racing.

And who might be next?
