Long Island horse racing at its best
By Richard Felix “Long Islander”
Stuart Held writes about the real Long Island just as Jimmy Breslin used to write about the the real New York. “Murder in the Backstretch” captures the Long Island horse racing scene using details of places, people and the LI racetracks. It took me to the Belmont Stakes and into this exciting tale of murder and treachery. It’s his best book yet.

A great read!
By Wendi Jo Mathis “Wendi” (Silverthorne, CO)
I had recently finished Blind Spot by Stuart Held so I was excited about his new release Murder in the Backstretch. I was not disappointed. It was another page turner. There is a lot of interesting information regarding horseracing as well a good mystery. I was shocked each time another answer to the puzzle was revealed.
