Synopsis:

10-lb Penalty by Dick Francis: Young Ben Juliard loves nothing better than the thrill of riding racehorses. But he agrees to hang up his jockey silks long enough to help his politician father campaign for a hotly contested seat in Parliament. As Ben and his father discover, though, an election campaign can be as dangerous--and require just as much cunning--as any horse race. The Escape Artist by Diane Chamberlain: How easy it seems to escape from trouble--to run away, start again. And that's just what Susanna Miller does when she loses custody of her toddler son. Fleeing with her child to a wealthy city, she finds work, a new identity, even a new man. But as she soon discovers, starting again can hold perils of its own. Point of Impact by John Nichol: RAF Flight Lieutenant Drew Miller refuses to accept the official verdict that the recent series of Tempest crashes, in which several of his friends were killed, are the result of pilot error. Instead he believes that the real answer lies in the design of the planes, but the only way to prove his theory is to risk everything. Homecoming by Belva Plain: A moving tale of parental love and desperation while throwing in plot twists and intrigue.
