I'm running out of Dick Francis mysteries, sadly. I've saved the less well-reviewed ones till last - and I'm surprised at how excellent they are in fact.Comeback is good solid Dick Francis. The protagonist Peter Darwin, a charming young diplomat, speaks various languages, loves his parents (even his stepfather) - and is good at fixing problems and hiding his thoughts while doing so.
Peter is on his way from Japan to his next assignment in London, when he rescues an older couple from muggers. This act of spontaneous heroism involves him inextricably with the couple. In any case Peter, Vicki and Greg are all flying to England on the same plane. Peter ends up staying with them for a visit to Cheltenham, where Vicky's daughter's wedding is to take place.
This happens also to be the neighborhood where Peter spent his early boyhood. He keeps quiet about that, being a reserved fellow, but early memories arise little by little - and ultimately help him solve a troubling mystery.
The mystery evolves around the sudden death of horses that are under the care of Vicky's daughter's fiancé Ken McClure, a vet.
Sudden friendships and love at first sight play an important role in the plot. Peter puts his life and his heart at risk for people he's just met: the young vet, and a lovely young woman encountered at the races. But after all, Dick Francis himself fell in love with his wife Mary at first meeting. He knows how these things work.
Comeback is educational, as is often the case with Francis books. I got more information than I could absorb about horse surgery and care! But it was interesting.
I'd recommend Comeback wholeheartedly, especially to fans who intend to read every Francis novel.

Finally broke down and loaded my favorite author Dick Francis into my . Couldn't be without him very long. I have every published book on my shelves, most in hard cover, most in paperback, but I've taken to loving reading the at night and am very glad to have Mr Francis on it.
My 11 year old son and I love baseball and Jesus. Dave's story was inspirational and well written. My son and I could not put it down.
Standard good Dick Francis detective book. With the nice balance of anti hero, distressed victims and hint of romance. Good fun.
Book description Why did he still have this effect on her?
Six years had passed since the end of Laurel's affair with novelist Craig Gleniston. And since then she'd found peace and security, if not love, as the wife of another man.
Now Craig had come back into her life, and Laurel faced an agonizing decision.
Could she really wreck her marriage over an old obsession--or was she strong enough to let Craig go again?
The story was ok but predictable somehow . I did not like the heroine through out much of the book but she redeemed herself at the end ) .
Dick Francis is awesome. He catches you with his characters. You can't wait to see what's going to happen, and how they're going to handle it.
The books that HE wrote. The newer ones are written by his son.
A good story for the characters and the interaction of the past and the present. The resolution is implausible, but still a good read for D.F. fans.
This may be considered by some as one of Dick Francis’ “lesser rated” novels. I disagree.
I particularly enjoyed the protagonist. I love it when Mr. Francis places a protagonist with superior deductive skills in a mystery that he solves deftly. And you are a bit surprised.
The main character is a diplomat just back from a posting in Japan who slides into a mystery at the racecourses on his way to a home posting in London. A medical - veterinary mystery.
