Published 1983.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAndrew Douglas earns his living bringing kidnapped people home, a business requiring patience, judgement and the ability to remain calm when fear overwhelms everyone else. The disappearance of Italian jockey Alessia Cenci draws him into a case whose consequences extend far beyond a single ransom demand. Further abductions connected with the racing world suggest a dangerous pattern, taking the investigation from Italy to England and on to Washington, D.C. As Andrew works to understand the criminals' methods, the line between professional involvement and personal danger begins to disappear. Dick Francis combines the tension of hostage recovery with the pressures of international racing, creating a thriller in which understanding a victim's ordeal may be as important as outthinking a kidnapper.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Value Junction ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68097117061332,"sku":"TVJ-035676","price":13.8,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/3059\/2980\/files\/TVJ-035676-1.jpg?v=1793068936","url":"https:\/\/thevaluejunction.co.nz\/products\/the-danger-francis","provider":"The Value Junction ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
