It took me four years and interviews with 27 witnesses to investigate the death of Alydar. My goal was to write a book that would honor Alydar's legacy, get the true facts about his death out into the public eye, and hopefully uncover somebody who knows something and can help solve the ultimate mystery.

The book is part mystery, part courtroom drama set in the adrenaline filled world of horseracing.

The book is unique in that readers will be able to review the original evidence in the trial, including photos taken the night of the incident, court documents, and investigative, medical, and expert reports.

At the end, the reader will be able to render their own verdict through a verdict form on my website, just as jurors would in a case.
