Summary: Another Francis masterpeice!!!
Comment: It's difficult to find a character in contemporary fiction who succeeds so well at living up to his principles with hardly a blink of his figurative eye. In "Forfeit" there is such a character. Confronted with a choice between selling out his integrity and facing hardship, journalist, James Tyrone invariably chooses the hardship and immediately applies his mental resources to overcome the threat. Francis has created a masterpiece of characterization, plot and style in yet another of his fabulous novels. You won't need coffee to stay awake with this one!

Summary: Journalists! Caution!
Comment: Journalists should be aware that they might stop writing after heaving read this incredible thriller by Dick Francis.
In this thriller, Dick Francis presents the story of an English journalist (Ty) who finds out about some corruption connected with a series of nonstarters in horse racing. Ty decides to uncover the cause for this series of nonstarters. Now the story becomes really interesting. Therefore, I do not want to spoil it. You have to read it yourself.
Dick Francis is able to convince me with this thriller because the plot seems pretty realistic. It is not a book where one would think: "It could not happen anyway". Mr Francis does not present the story idealized.
In conclusion I have to say that you ought to read this book even if you do not like horses or horse racing!
Rating: 5
Summary: Outstanding book. If you read, read this one.
Comment: Basically, I completely second the evaluation by the reviewer from Sydney, Australia. So, if you want my reaction to it, read that one. I'm writing mainly to thank the Aussie, because that review led me to buy the book, and have the almost painful pleasure of reading it myself.
