Dead Money by Steve O'Brien Review

You Can’t Stop It.
The stranger’s menacing, dismissive laughter echoed in attorney Dan Morgan’s head.
In the heart of thoroughbred country--Churchill Downs--a major con was about to be pulled. Despite Dan’s efforts, his filly, Aly Dancer, was somehow part of the scheme. 
You Can’t Stop It.
Dan’s dream as a thoroughbred owner was to run in a Grade I race—a televised stakes race. That opportunity had finally appeared. 
So far it had only resulted in threats, violence and death.
You Can’t Stop It.
What was the scam? Who was involved? Who could he turn to?
Post time was nearing.
The man’s sinister voice would not leave him. 
You Can’t Stop It

My Thoughts:
Dead Money the sequel of Bullet Work involving lawyer Dan Morgan who owns Aly Dancer, a racehorse who is slated to run a big race.  Someone wants to buy Aly Dancer and will do whatever it takes to purchase this horse. The trainer of Aly Dancer is found dead of an apparent suicide but evidence shows that this is not the case. Dan finds himself traveling back and forth from DC to Florida on a regular basis..horse races, Russians, murder and a romance, this book has it all. Some of the horse racing lingo I found hard to understand but I did enjoy the book. I have read three of Steve O'Brien's books and have enjoyed each and every one.

I received this book for review from Cadence Group and I was not monetarily compensated for my review.
