Book description
Tony Beach, wine merchant, knows his scotch, so to be asked to give his
opinion of one particular bottle seems harmless enough. But the bottle
contains firewater of a highly explosive nature - and, without intending
it, Tony finds himself trapped on a one-way route into danger. From a
harmless Sunday morning party at a racing stable and onwards to the edge
of death, Tony comes nearer and nearer to a lethal adversary and,
unexpectedly, to a fuller knowledge of his own true self. Set in the
world of wine and spirits, PROOF is crafted with Dick Francis's usual
high standard of drama, suspense and invention. Dick Francis has
written thirty-seven bestselling thrillers set in the field of racing,
and SHATTERED (September 2000) will be the next. He and his wife Mary
divide their time between England and the British West Indies.
