: En la última y más picante novela de Jilly Cooper, Rupert Campbell-Black ocupa un lugar central en el despiadado mundo de las carreras de caballos. Rupert está consumido por una obsesión: que Love Rat, su adorado caballo gris, sea proclamado semental campeón. Anhela derrotar a Roberto's Revenge, el semental propiedad de su detestado rival Cosmo Rannaldini, lo que significa abandonar su imperio de carreras en Penscombe y a su querida esposa Taggie, y perseguir a los ganadores en las carreras más ricas del mundo, desde Dubái hasta Los Ángeles y Melbourne. Afortunadamente, el fuerte en casa lo mantiene el asistente de Rupert, Gav, un genio con los caballos, al que le gusta cada moza de cuadra, pero dañado por el alcoholismo y una esposa vil. Cuando Gala, una viuda zimbabuense afligida pero fascinante, se muda a Penscombe como cuidadora del padre rebelde de Rupert, no es solo Gav quien se siente atraído por ella: un Rupert que regresa se siente peligrosamente tentado. Gala adora los caballos, y cuando cambia a trabajar en el patio, su trabajo de cuidadora lo ocupa un hombre sudafricano devastadoramente guapo que afirma ser gay pero parece mucho más interesado en cuidar de la angelical Taggie. Y a medida que actos de sabotaje cada vez más siniestros golpean a Penscombe, el juego de las cajas sueltas musicales se acelera.

From the Sunday Times bestselling author of Rivals, now a major series on Disney+
Rupert Campbell-Black takes centre stage once more, this time in the cut-throat world of flat racing.
Rupert is consumed by one obsession: that Love Rat, his adored grey horse, be proclaimed champion stallion. He longs to trounce Roberto's Revenge, the stallion owned by his detested rival Cosmo Rannaldini, which means abandoning his racing empire at Penscombe and his darling wife Taggie, and chasing winners in the richest races worldwide, from Dubai to Los Angeles to Melbourne.
Luckily, the fort at home is held by Rupert's assistant Gav, a genius with horses, fancied by every stable lass, but damaged by alcoholism and a vile wife. When Gala, a grieving but ravishing Zimbabwean widow moves to Penscombe as carer for Rupert's wayward father, it is not just Gav who is attracted to her: a returning Rupert finds himself dangerously tempted.
Gala adores horses, and when she switches to working in the yard, her carer's job is taken by a devastatingly handsome South African man who claims to be gay but seems far keener on caring for the angelic Taggie. And as increasingly sinister acts of sabotage strike at Penscombe, the game of musical loose boxes gathers apace . . .
