Horseplay turns deadly... Young Ricky Alleyn has come to the picturesque fishing village of Deep Cove to write. Through the sleepy little town offers few diversions, Ricky manages to find the most distracting one of all: murder. For in a muddy ditch, he sees a dead equestrienne whose last leap was anything but an accident. And when Ricky himself disappears, the case becomes a horse of a different color for his father, Inspector Roderick Alleyn.

Review:
"It's time to start comparing Christie to Marsh instead of the other way around." --"New York "magazine
Book Description:
P. I. Leo Waterman's late father was once one of the region's most powerful and colourful political characters. But just how seriously Waterman senior transgressed during his time on earth comes into question when one of "the Boys" - Leo's "residentially challenged" barfly allies - digs up a human skeleton in Dad's backyward.The remains that remain belong to "Wild Bill" Waterman's staunchest foe - an ultra-conservative muckraking journalist who vanished mysteriously thirty years before. Leo has always struggled in his father's shadow - but he's convinced that his old man was much too savvy to have committed murder - let alone to have interred the victim in his own backyard.But in order to clear his father's damaged name, the dutiful son is going to have to start digging up a very dangerous past . . . and to do his damnedest not to get buried beneath it. 'I am utterly beguiled by G. M. Ford's Leo Waterman . . . Ford writes with a toughness leavened by grace and wit' MARGARET MARON 'A fine new mystery' SEATTLE TIMES
