Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A False Start, Vol. 3 of 3: A Novel
I am afraid you are about the most hopelessly ruined man of my acquaintance. A man who has only to sit still and see hundred-pound notes dropping into his lap is certain to deteriorate; he is bound to get out of the idea of ever earning his living in future. The filly is a clipper, and made a perfect show of her field on Tuesday. By the way, I met young Balders at Don caster and he tells me that you are about to leave Tunnleton. What does that mean? Are you tired of it or has the petulant little place tired of you? When we cast out from its bosom your most virulent foe Richard Madingley - if that really is his name - I thought that Tunnleton would be bound to acknowledge its obligation to you.
