Synopsis

New York Times bestselling author Felix Francis returns with another nail-biting thriller in the Dick Francis tradition.

It is said that everyone over a certain age can remember distinctly what they were doing when they heard that President Kennedy had been assassinated, or that Princess Diana had been killed in a Paris car crash, but I, for one, could recall all too clearly where I was standing when a policeman told me that my wife had been murdered.

Bill Russell is acting as a volunteer steward at Warwick Races when he confronts his worst nightmare—the violent death of his much-loved wife. But the aftermath proves much worse, when he is accused of killing her and then hounded mercilessly by the media. Losing his job and in danger of losing his home too, Bill’s life begins to unravel completely. Even his best friends turn against him, thinking him guilty of the heinous crime, despite the lack of any compelling evidence.

As Bill sets out to clear his name, he finds that proving one’s innocence isn’t easy.

He believes he can track down the true culprit, but can he prove it before he becomes the murderer’s next victim?

Guilty Not Guilty is a journey of greed and jealousy set against the grief of personal tragedy, with many a twist and turn along the way.

Goodreads review by David

I've always been a big fan of the Dick Francis novels and I'm very glad that his son is continuing the tradition. Overall I've found that the Felix novels are not quite as good as his father's, but still enjoyable. However, this book was not up to par. The story was lame, downbeat, and repetitive. T......more

Goodreads review by Natalie

Surprising. There were many great aspects to this novel. Definite undertones of his father Dick Francis and I really couldn’t get Jeffrey Archer out of mind with the legal aspects of the story. A solid plot which created very strong feelings towards the characters which I enjoy in a book. There were a......more
