Breeders: a Crime Novel Bjarne Rostaing 第1 版

Len Thomas likes being the only black thoroughbred trainer anyone ever heard of, but boss Pat McGoohey is one rough, unethical owner. Lacking good ponies, he develops a driving obsession to have his lackluster mare breed with a champion stud owned by a Kentucky blue-blood steel magnolia, Dixie Dixon, whose high-maintenance is kept in check and in bed by her beautiful Creole assistant and confidante, Holly St. Cyr.
 
With the help of Paco, Len's visionary Mexican horse whisperer, McGoohey's mare breaks some rules in a Saratoga race and comes through, impressing major Arabian syndicate owner Sheikh Lakham, while Len falls hard for Dixie's mysterious assistant.

When McGoohey approaches Dixie for her stud's services, she publicly humiliates and insults him, enraging the impulsive, dangerous owner, who presses trainer Len to make the mating happen by hook or by crook. A scheme is hatched; Len and his motley crew head south, all going well until the well weed-fueled Paco explodes into an extravagant vision that sends things spiraling downhill and cross country.

From a Louisville jail to Tijuana to Paris, on the lam and one step ahead of the law, it's a fast comic trail greased by Cheetos, adrenaline and weed, theft, drugs, occasional but well-deserved sex, Voodoo Dust, horse-whisperings, Mexican Federales (and a little help from the Sheikh), aspirations and Love, with a bizarre resolution in the border country where lives are changed forever.
