Dick Francis - Favorit. Ein Sid-Halley-Roman.
Originaltitel: Come to Grief
Krimi. Diogenes 1997
410 Seiten, ISBN: 3257230931
Ganz England ist empört - Sid Halley wagt es, den angesehenen Fernsehstar Ellis Quint, der noch dazu ein alter Freund von ihm aus aktiven Renntagen ist, eines ungeheuerlichen Verbrechens zu beschuldigen: er hätte mehreren Pferden den rechten Vorderhuf abgeschnitten.
So groß das Entsetzen über diese Tat auch im ganzen Land ist - keiner glaubt daran, daß ausgerechnet Ellis sie begangen haben soll. Sid sieht sich einer Hetzkampagne in der Zeitung "The Pump" ausgesetzt, der sich sämtliche andere Medien anschließen.
Drohanrufe, Schmähungen - damit hat er schon zu leben gelernt. Doch am ersten Verhandlungstag wird ihm aufgelauert - und nur mit Mühe kann er verhindern, von Ellis Vater Gordon totgeschlagen zu werden.
Begonnen hatte seine Suche, weil er von Linda Fern. Das Pony ihrer neunjährigen, krebskranken Tochter Rachel wurde auf diese grausame Weise verstümmelt, und nun möchten sie zumindest wissen, wer es war, um Rachel weitere Alpträume zu ersparen.
Ellis hatte damals eine Sendung über dieses Thema gemacht, hatte alle Kinder zu Gast - und er war es auch, der den Kauf dieses Ponys vorgeschlagen hatte.

43. Dick Francis - Schnappschuß / Blood Sport - LESELUST-Rezension
Rezension von Daniela Ecker in Leselust.
http://www.die-leselust.de/buch/franc003.htm
Dick Francis - Schnappschuß
Originaltitel: Blood Sport
Krimi. Diogenes 1998
363 Seiten, ISBN: 3257229879
Schon am ersten Morgen seines dreiwöchigen Urlaubs erhält Gene Hawkins einen Anruf seines Chefs Keebles - Familienausflug auf der Themse. Sehr ungewöhnlich, das findet auch die halberwachsene Tochter Lynnie, daß Keebles dazu einen Mitarbeiter einlädt. Noch ein Mann ist mit von der Partie - Dave Teller.
Ihm wurde vor einigen Tagen ein wertvoller Zuchthengst, den er gerade gekauft hatte, beim Heimtransport gestohlen. Und Gene, der ohnehin mit seinem Urlaub nichts Rechtes anzufangen weiß, den Selbstmordgedanken plagen, soll ihn wiederfinden. Ein wenig verlockender Vorschlag, den er dann auch ablehnt. Doch als später am Nachmittag ein kleiner Unfall auf der Themse ihre Hilfsbereitschaft fordert, und Dave dabei schwer verletzt wird, ändert er seine Meinung - er glaubt nicht an den Unfall.
Zwei bzw. zehn Jahre zuvor waren schon mal zwei Hengste verschwunden, die nie mehr aufgetaucht sind.
Von der Versicherungsgesellschaft erhält er Unterstützung durch Walt Prensela.
Glück, Zufall - und eine gründliche Recherche bringen ihn auf die Ranch von Yola und Matt - die beiden, die auch den Unfall auf der Themse arrangiert hatten. Yola erkennt ihn nicht wieder, und Matt ist nicht hier. Und: sie haben den Hengst!

Dick Francis
Dick Francis wurde am 31. Oktober 1920 als Richard Stanley Francis in Pembrokeshire, Südwales, geboren. Als Sohn eines Rennstallbesitzers lernte er schon von klein auf den Umgang mit Pferden, so dass es nur selbstverständlich war, sich mit knapp sechs Jahren die ersten Sporen als Jockey zu verdienen. Nach dem Dienst als Pilot bei der Royal Airforce im 2. Weltkrieg nahm er seine Profilaufbahn als Jockey wieder auf. Sein berühmtester Fan und auch Arbeitgeber war die Königin Mutter, für die er vier Jahre lang Pferdrennen ritt. Auf dem untenstehenden Bild ist er mit der Queen, Prinzessin Margaret und Queen Mum im Gespräch abgebildet. Die sehr erfolgreiche Reitkarriere mit rund 350 Siegen endete jedoch 1956 nach einem mysteriösen Sturz abrupt: Er führte das Feld im Grand-National-Hindernisrennen in Aintree an und hatte bereits die letzte Hürde passiert, ehe sein Pferd kurz vor dem Ziel aus ungeklärten Umständen stürzte. Seine Bücher erreichten bis heute eine weltweite Auflage von über 70 Millionen Exemplaren und wurden in über 30 Sprachen übersetzt. Dick Francis wurde mit vielen Auszeichnungen für seine Autorenarbeit geehrt. Beispiele sind der mehrfach verliehene Edgar Allen Poe Mistery Award; der Silver, Gold und Diamond Dagger sowie der 1996 verliehene Mystery Writers of America Grand Master Award für sein Gesamtwerk.

    Description
    An exhilarating new novel from the New York Times -bestselling authors. Shell-shocked and missing a foot-lost to an IED during his tour of duty in Afghanistan-Captain Tom Forsyth has been sent "home" by the army and, at loose ends, returns to his estranged mother's house for the first time since he joined up at seventeen. But Josephine Kauri, the "first lady of British racing," has always put the horses she trains first and her family last. Tom soon finds himself strained to the breaking point with his mother and stepfather. But there's another reason for the stifling tension at Kauri House Stables: Josephine is being blackmailed for a hefty sum every week-and forced to make her horses lose. Retirement is not an option, as she has been warned that it will result in the thing she most fears: exposure and ridicule . . . and prison, when the government finds out what she's been hiding.

    pambo's Full Review: Francis, Dick
    Dick Francis has taken two subjects I care little about: stoic, stiff-upper-lip Englishmen, and horses, and turned them into a entertaining series of mysteries.
    What is most interesting about the author is that he was a champion jockey for years who turned writing into an award-winning career. These aren't my-life-as-a-jock-as-told-to books; these are interesting mysteries that mostly center on the horse-racing world in England, but occasionally feature a character in a different walk of life. His heroes often are beaten up, either because of their horse-racing careers or because they've stumbled into someone's scheme. So there's a lot of working through the pain, hiding the pain, etc., that will appeal to some while wear a little thin on others.
    His introspective characters range in age from teenager to middle-age. The violence is usually important to the story and to the character's development. There isn't as much violence for the sake of violence as we see in some fictional work.
