For millionaire jockey Alan York, winning is a bonus. For Joe Nantwich, victory means no cushy backhanders; and for Bill Davidson, front running on strongly fancied Admiral, triumph is an imposter. It means murder - his own. Turning private detective, York uses Joe's underworld connections to go on the trail of the killers - only to draw a series of blanks. But when ambushed by a gang of viscious thugs, he picks up some clues along with his cuts and bruises. Bill's murder begings to make more sense. Until York finds himself in hospital, without a memory.
"These expressions in their variety are meant to help you enrich your spoken and written repertoire. It is not really a handicap to learn some of them by heart on condition that you frequently use them while talking to your classmates or friends or even some Englishspeaking people. Gradually those expressions become yours and you will use them normally and naturally. Take it for granted that the language is first and foremost a means of communication. The more you practise it the more you become perfect. Finally, remember that the world would understand and appreciate what you say if you said it in the right way."-- Mubarak Abdessalami
