Negative Positive
Title: If this book were a race horse it would have pulled up lame.
Review: I have been an avid fan of this author's work, but I am sorry to say this is nowhere near his best. I thought his sketch of the wise, heroic seventen year old protagonist would have been more appropriate for juvenile literature. This fired jockey shifts career gears instantly to become the expert bodyguard for his father? His father rises quickly and without a single misstep to become prime minister? Better spend your money on almost any other Francis book.
