Summary

Free choice? There's no such thing, according to Lee Morris. Choice is pre-ordained by your personality. Stratton Park racecourse faces ruin in the hands of a squabbling family. Lee is slowly sucked into the turmoil, unwillingly on the surface but half-understanding the deep compulsions that influence his decisions. One road leads to safety, another to death. How do you know which is which?

Lee's choices and their consequences bring deadly results, but the road out of the quicksand is there, if he can find it. Horses and racing are familiar ingredients, but this time there are also children, houses, roots and decisions. Danger? Naturally. Stratton Park racecourse is worth multi-millions, and all of the Stratton family are playing to win.

I love Dick Francis

I love all of his books and although most were written a while back they never seem dated. I loved the inclusion of the children and how they all stuck together no matter what. Great story!!

Dick Francis at his best

Books are personal and I loved this one. The story, narrated by Tony Britton was a real page turner and I couldn’t stop listening. Can’t wait to start it again.

Another triumph

With a background of a racecourse, philandering, wealth & latent evil, a story that kept me riveted from start to finish.

Third time and still highly entertaining

Some of the books are better than others, like To The Hilt, but Decider is on a par with the best of Dick Francis.
