Over dit e-boek
THE DISAPPEARANCE OF PENNY - A Henry Po Horse Mystery
Penny is the daughter of one of the owners at Staten Island Downs, a popular New York race track. Everyone agrees that she's a knockout. When she disappears, her father calls in a favor and Henry Po, an investigator for the Racing Commission, is asked to find her. But as Po begins to dig, he finds more than a missing girl. He lands in the middle of a feud between Penny's father, the self-absorbed Benjamin Hopkins, and his former partner and self-styled lothario, Paul Lassiter. He also finds a jockey being hounded by a shadowy gang of thugs, possibly part of an ongoing race fixing investigation. Could the two cases be connected? And what about the lady jockey, Brandy, who suddenly seems so interested? Is she all that she seems? Po has more clues than he knows what do with, and they may just add up to murder.
"Robert J. Randisi writes so effortlessly—in a fast, lean style, with dialogue so real you might well be eavesdropping—it's easy to overlook his sharp characterization and breakneck narrative drive." —Max Allan Collins
"Robert Randisi has long been held as a master of the genre." —Michael Connelly
