About this listen

Henry Grey doesn't particularly care for having been born the heir to an earldom. He is a reserved young man whose greatest problem is his mother's match-making plots and whose greatest joy is to ride as an amateur steeplechase jockey. But on a sudden impulse, he throws in his respectable desk job to join a firm which transports racehorses all over the world. Yardman Transport proves to be Henry's passport to many things, not the least the girl he loves, and a tidy little racket which brings him face to face with death.

Not Mr. Francis' best work, (there are a lot of loose ends at the end) but a rollicking good read none-the-less. Once it got going I couldn't leave it and Mr Britton's expressive voice made the whole experience memorable.

An excellent story and a world class narrator

I thoroughly enjoyed the book. It was well written and took me inside the story. I feel so sad that the story is over. Can’t wait for the next book.
