About this listen
Free choice? There's no such thing, according to Lee Morris. Choice is pre-ordained by your personality. 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 out of the quicksand 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.

Francis at his Storytelling Best
Superb and unusual story by Francis. Tony Britton reads exceptionally well, the combination making this one of the truly classic audiobooks.

I love Dick Francis
I love all of his books and although most were written a while back they never seem dated. I loved the inclusion of the children and how they all stuck together no matter what. Great story!!

Dick Francis at his best
Books are personal and I loved this one. The story, narrated by Tony Britton was a real page turner and I couldn’t stop listening. Can’t wait to start it again.

Another triumph
With a background of a racecourse, philandering, wealth & latent evil, a story that kept me riveted from start to finish.

Third time and still highly entertaining
Some of the books are better than others, like To The Hilt, but Decider is on a par with the best of Dick Francis.

Two families in contrast!
Another Dick Francis favourite of mine. In contrast to the warring Stratton family, Lee Morris' dysfunctional marriage is a picnic. He faces the turmoil of the Strattons and their racecourse with dispassionate equanimity and wisdom, with numerous small sons in tow, bringing sanity and reason to the chaos.
His self-built house with the hypocaust is an absolute delight, as is his life on the road with his boys in the caravan.
As old family secrets are revealed, tragedy ensues, and young lives are moulded under the guidance of a father the envy of any young boy.
A great read.
