Syndicate / Felix Francis.
Theo Jennings, an up-and-coming auctioneer in Newmarket, England, is planning on making his first ever multi-million sale with a yearling colt -- until it's found dead. When a person's body is discovered in the same stable a few days later, all fingers point to him. The only way to clear Theo's name is to find the real murderer, but it isn't just the police who have their eye on him -- the killer has a target on his back.

Someone tries to take over one of his syndicates by force, and by threats of serious harm to him and his family. For the first time in Chester's life, it's not just a horse race or money at stake-it's his lifeand the lives of his loved ones.
