Book description
BREAK IN was originally published in 1985, and was the first of two
books to feature Kit Fielding, champion steeplechase jockey. Kit goes to
the aid of his twin sister whose husband, a racehorse trainer, faces
ruin as the result of a spiteful newspaper campaign. Because of his
courage, Kit in turn becomes the target. This vintage Dick Francis novel
is about family relationships, about love, hatred and obsession. It is
about the day-to-day life of a top-flight horseman for whom race-riding
is the most demanding and rewarding love of all. Dick Francis has
written thirty-six bestselling novels, one autobiography and one
biography (of Lester Piggott). He now lives in the Cayman Islands.
