Free choice? There's no such thing, according to Lee Morris. Choice is pre-determined by your traits.

Stratton Park racecourse faces ruin in the hands of a squabbling family. Lee is slowly sucked into the turmoil, unwillingly on the surface but half-understanding the deep compulsions that influence his decisions.

One road leads to safety, another to death. How do you know which is which?

Lee's choices and their consequences bring deadly results, but the road to escape is there, if he can find it. Horses and racing are familiar ingredients, but this time there are also children, houses, roots and decisions . . .

Danger? Naturally.

Stratton Park racecourse is worth multi-millions, and all of the Stratton family are playing to win.

Packed with intrigue and hair-raising suspense, Decider is just one of the many blockbuster thrillers from legendary crime writer Dick Francis.
