Smokescreen

From a New York Times–bestselling author, "a supersized action-suspense novel" about a celebrity turned amateur sleuth investigating a horseracing mystery (Kirkus Reviews).

Dick Francis, Edgar Award–winning master of mystery and suspense, takes you into the thrilling world of horse racing.

Edward Lincoln may be an international film star who plays daring detectives on the big screen, but in reality he's just an ordinary man.

Unfortunately, his ailing friend doesn't seem to think so, and now he's come to South Africa to investigate who's been tampering with her racehorses. But it isn't long before he realizes he must go face-to-face with a killer, and give the performance of his life to save his life . . .
