The Rise of the Dark Horse

By Damien Casey

Antoine Du Bois is a French impressionist painter who delights in living at his beautiful estate in Lanvallay, northern France. Having secured victory in The Grand Steeple-Chases de Paris with his best friend, monsieur Gagnier, his wife, Camille and his consortium, they decide to tackle the English at Aintree, for The Grand National Steeplechase title. But, not all goes to plan while they battle the English press, the weather and themselves. Join Antoine on his adventures while he battles his way through the greatly politicized world of the French aristocracy, and the imperious English superiority complexes that surround this glorious race.
