    S Riaz. The Whip Hand. Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 November 2011. Verified Purchase. Written in 1965, this is the first of Victor Canning's Rex Carver books. This series was the most successful he wrote, although I should point out that it is written in the first person, which I know some people find irritating. Carver is a London PI.

    Jul 1, 2019 · In Whip Hand, Sid Halley is a former jockey, now a professional PI investigating several cases at the same time, and all are interesting. In multi-plot books, there always seems to be a subplot that I'm just not interested in, and I'm disappointed when the action goes there.
