Even the best private eye needs more than a name to find a missing
person, but that's all that Father Vincent Tyrrell, the brother of
prominent racehorse trainer FX Tyrrell, will offer Loy when he
comes to him for help. A dwindling bank account convinces Loy to
delve into the deadly underworld of horse racing, but fortune soon
smiles on him: while working another case, he discovers a phone
number linked to FX on a badly beaten body left at an illegal dump.
Loy's been around long enough to know that there's more to the
Tyrrell family than meets the eye - and then a third body appears.
At Christmastime, on the eve of one of Ireland's most anticipated
racing events, the intrepid investigator bets his life on a
longshot: finding answers in a shady network of trading and
dealing, gambling and breeding.
