Damage by Keith Francis

Title: Damage
Author: Keith Francis
Did I listen or read?: library book
When did I finish?: December 20, 2014
When was the book published: 2014
Main Characters: Jeff Hinkley, the British Horseracing Authority
What happens? Hinkley is an investigator and master of disguises for BHA.  He sees Matthew Unwin murder someone at a track by cutting his throat.  Someone starts committing acts of terror (poisoning jockeys, then the race course judges, after setting explosives in a jump fence at Cheltenham.)  Hinkley has to figure it out, and it leads where you might expect - into the seat of power.
How long was this? 400 pages
Did I like this?  Good stuff, in the Francis mold, as Hinkley wrestles with his relationship with his girlfriend, and his contentious co-workers.  Not the best of, but very readable.
Overall grade: B+
