In this mystery from New York Times bestselling author Dick Francis, a jockey becomes the sole inheritor of his late brother’s business, horse, mistress, and enemies.

Steeplechase jockey Derek Franklin has had more broken bones than he cares to count, but it seems his latest injury could very well bring his days on the race course to a screeching halt. But that’s the least of his concerns when his brother turns up dead, leaving Derek as the sole inheritor of his estate. It doesn’t take long for Derek to learn that his brother—a magistrate who imported and sold semiprecious stones—was keeping more than his share of secrets. Now Derek must recover $1.5 million worth of missing diamonds—and find out who wanted his brother dead—or else his career won’t be the only thing in danger of being cut short …

“If you read the first paragraph of Straight, I’m willing to wager, whatever the odds, you will spring to the finish line.”—The Washington Post

A great story read by one of the top narrators - not to be missed. A classic modern English hero - intelligent, thoughtful, caring, tough, cultured but not snobbish who lives a “simple” life of high stakes racing only to be catapulted into the turmoil of a new life through the death of his brother. What a great ride for the reader/listener.

One of my favorite Dick Francis novels

I really enjoyed learning a little about the gem trade and also the whole feel of the business environment. A bit unusual for DF and truly interesting! The puzzle-master aspect was also intriguing. I disliked the constant pain and violent attacks repeatedly suffered by the hero who shook it off with ridiculously cool aplomb. Detracted from what was otherwise a really great story, IMHO

Fascinating and fast-paced!

I love every book I read from Dick Francis. He has a way of drawing you into the story that not every author can do. I seldom can figure out who the bad guy is before he reveals the person.

The awful editing, telling the listener to turn the tape over at the end of the side and tape noise in the background.

Good Story Bad Editing

As usual his books are captivating, and worth listening to!  I am always pulled into the story and it. It’s good characters. 

Interesting and fun!

Simon Prebble is so good! Love the way he delivers the story. Dick Francis weaves a story that always makes you think that you’ll never find the solution but bit by bit, with well-placed dead-ends, the solution appears. Fun read!

Great story teller!
