Race to the Wire - Arundle Racing Raymond Daubney

William D'Aubigny is a retired RCMP proceeds of crime investigator who occasionally takes on investigative assignments for the Jockey Club. His brother Walt, is a Canadian Army veteran of the Afghan war, fighting back from the loss of a limb, a failed marriage, and a drug dependency. Together they have bought and trained two racehorses as part dream and part equine therapy. When William is asked to investigate and locate two of the Emir's horses that have gone missing, he finds tangled motives and a tangled romance with the Emirs niece - the seductive and beautiful Princess Amira. While William follows the trail of illicit finance from the oilfields of Venezuela to the silk road of Kazakhstan, a shadowy and ruthless syndicate plans to rope both William and Amira into a diabolical plot to change the course of the Sport of Kings forever and seize control of the Emirs throne in the bargain. Lives become intertwined, and with love, money and a kingdom on the line, the Princess and William find themselves in a race they must win at any cost. A race to the wire.
