Things go from bad to worse when Ginnie, Olivers daughter is found dead under suspicious circumstances. Dick Francis adds mystery when

Dick Francis books are always a good read! I haven't disliked any of his books yet, and I have read almost all of them.His main character is always likeable, easy going, yet comes through when he finds himself is a tricky situation. Which always seems to happen. He also includes background information on some aspect of the environment in which the story takes place - usually around horses.So it is no surprise that Banker gets 5 stars. The story is typically horse related (which one always

Top breeders reckon it's the safest bet in racing, but racing is riddled with dubious dealmakers - people to whom no bet is safe until it's paid in blood.What I remember most is flying kites. I so enjoyed this book.

Tim Ekaterin is a young, rising, merchant banker. His days are spent deciding which business ventures to lend money to. Doesn't that sound dull? After careful consideration and research, he crafts a very large loan enabling a stud farmer to purchase a champion race horse for breeding. As the introduction begins, "It's difficult to say where disaster begins..." and all great novels deal in disasters. Tim finds himself working desperately to save the bank's money and learns a great deal more about
