For twenty years Buck Clegg has been racing horses. But he's had to give up the saddle and is now a jockey's agent. His old friend Charlie Vann contacts him because his finest horse, Jim Ned, has been stolen. Despite Buck's protests that he is no detective, Vann insists on his help. The thieves want money, but they may have no intention of returning Jim Ned -- as Buck and Charlie find out when they nearly get killed trying to deliver the ransom. As the search becomes desperate, Buck discovers that his ex-wife may somehow be involved. The situation deteriorates when the horse thieves apparently find another way to dispose of Jim Ned, and for a lot more money than Charlie Vann can pay! A Distance Of Ground is a terrific, well written novel with a complex plot that engages the reader's full attention from first page to last.
