Learn moreSomeone is torturing and killing high-stakes players in the horse-racing world; all signs point to an animal activist gone rogue. But San Diego CSI Holly Jennings knows better. She’s seen enough violence in her time to know the difference between a killer bent on revenge and a killer seeking sheer destruction.
To stop him, Holly must venture beyond the gleaming facade of jockey silks and Derby hats into the seedy underbelly of the racing world, where ambition and greed trump ethics and fair play, and people will do anything—even kill—to win. But just when she thinks the killer is within her reach, a ghost from the past returns to threaten it all: her case, her job…and her life.
A. K. Alexander dreamed of being a writer since the age of nine, earning a degree in journalism from the University of Southern California before tackling fiction. Today she is the author of almost two dozen books—women’s fiction, paranormal novels, mysteries, and thrillers—including her recently re-issued debut novel, Covert Reich. A lifelong equestrian, she helps to run her family business manufacturing sports-medicine products for horses. She is a native of San Diego, California, and still lives there today with her family, which includes three kids, nine horses, four dogs, and a cat.
Reviews
“I inhaled A.K. Alexander’s nerve-wracking thriller, Blood and Roses. As a horseracing fan, I am often hard to please when it comes to books set on the racetrack. No problem here: I reveled in the vivid and memorable world she brought to the page, a special place suffused with desire and deceit, violence and love. Holly Jennings is my kind of detective—I would follow her anywhere.” —J. Carson Black, New York Times Bestselling Author of The Survivors Club
