Praise for Triple Cross... "There is plenty of action here, all set against the excitement and pageantry of the build-up to America's greatest horse race." -Booklist " Triple Cross] unfolds with a clocker's precision while deftly capturing the city, the track, and its thoroughbred stars." -Blue Ribbon Books Barn manager Steve Cline has enrolled in a private investigation course and is working on the final project. But when his father, trainer Chris Kessler, offers him a two-week, all-expense-paid vacation in Louisville, how can he refuse? Except, it isn't really a vacation. Kessler has a Derby runner and needs a reliable fill-in for an injured employee. The workload is light, so Steve decides to get that class project out of the way-a simple records search. But initiating the project triggers a chance encounter that plunges Steve into the world of the ultra rich, where greed, revenge, and ambition drive some men to commit unspeakable acts amid the pageantry and glamour of thoroughbred racing. From the security of the backside to the Derby festivities that transform downtown Louisville into Party Central to an opulent Lexington horse farm, Steve tries to stop a murderer before a power play ends in shattered dreams and a bloody triple cross....
