Elena Estes has always been a risk-taker -but it cost her everything: her confidence, her career, and, most importantly, the life of a fellow cop. Now in retreat in Florida, Elena wants to be left alone. Then a visitor comes calling.
Twelve-year-old Molly Seabright needs help.
Her older stepsister, Erin, hasn't been seen for several days and Molly seems to be the only person who's concerned. Erin works as a groom at the Wellington show grounds and, although Elena doesn't even have a private investigator's licence, Molly persuades her to visit the show grounds.
Elena discovers the dark side of a glamorous sport, a world of crooked horse-dealers, drugs and payoffs, where anything can be had for a
price. And in that world stalks a killer. . .
