| 520 | . | ‡aDeath of a Racehorse by Katie Bo Lillis investigates the dark undercurrents of modern horse racing through two major scandals, exposing a sport plagued by drug abuse, class tensions, and profit-driven neglect of animal welfare. With insider access, Lillis reveals how ambition, wealth, and flawed industry practices have pushed horses beyond their limits in a system prioritizing money over ethics. | |
