To the Jockey Club, the racing world would be a better place without Julius Apollo Filmer. He is an expert in corruption with a devastating line in witness intimidation, and proving to be a slippery character to put behind bars.
Baffled, they call in undercover security agent Tor Kelsey to keep an unflinching eye on Filmer and his associates. Tor joins the rich crowd going from England to Canada for “The Great Transcontinental Mystery Race Train.” Pretending he’s a waiter, it is a mission that takes him from the finest of English racecourses to the wild Canadian interior, on a luxury transcontinental train journey to end them all.
On board, a troupe of actors is playing out a murder mystery to amuse their wealthy passengers; it is ideal cover for a secret investigator who has secrets of his own. And ideal cover, as it turns out, also for an ice cool blackmailer with murder on his mind.
The British author’s 27th novel boasts the combination of subject matter and prose style that have made him an international bestseller: thoroughbred horses and heroes, heart palpitations, speed and comedy. There is no limit to the thrills along the way, and no way to predict the stunning denouement.
One reviewer thought the book suffered because there was the lack of a relationship between Tor and the bad guy. Julius Apollo Filmer (bad guy) doesn’t even know Tor exists so Tor is never at risk.” It’s like if someone tells you about something horrific that happened to a friend of a friend of a friend…just a little too far removed to really kick you in the gut”
