Reflex

In this morally complex story, jockey Philip Nore sets out to discover the truth about the murder of track photographer George Millace. Slowly, Nore unravels secrets of corruption, blackmail, and murder, and unwittingly sets himself up as the killer's next target. As in all Dick Francis's books, Reflex emphasizes ethical dilemmas and questions of morality rather than graphic violence or explicit sex scenes. At the same time, it offers the intricate plotting and memorable characters that have made the author both a popular and critical favorite.
