Jonathan Trott reviewed Odds against by Francis, Dick.
First Sid book
5 stars
Sid gets off to a great start with a rollicking good tale. We know the who from the first but we don’t know the what, where, why, or how and its great fun finding out.
Odds against
From Goodreads: Sid Halley, an injured jockey, becomes a private eye and carries out some work for his father-in-law, who believes a man is trying to financially ruin Seabury racecourse, so that it can be sold to property developers.
