Шаблон:Infobox book A Game of Chance is a 1920 sporting novel by Arthur Wright,[1] about sensational events in the world of Australian horse racing.
Reception
According to the reviewer in the Western Mail:
Hero and heroine and villain of the piece are well enough drawn; and there is incident enough in the book to satisfy the veriest glutton for sensation; while towards the close of an exciting story the murder trial... finishes in a most unexpected manner. Mr. Arthur Wright has been compared with the late Nat Gould; and as a rule, his books contain even greater dramatic, or melodramatic, possibilities, or impossibilities, than the numerous works of that most prolific writer.[2]
