Description:
"The Favorite" is one of the best novels by Dick Francis, in which the writer's corporate style was clearly manifested: a reporter's approach to describing events, a filigree study of the plot and characters, and excellent knowledge of the topic. Here, the criminal background is nothing more than a frame for the ideas of humanism, romance, the confrontation between good and evil, nobility and baseness.
On an unkind dank February day, the UK's best horse, named Admiral, suddenly fell near another obstacle, which led to the death of the rider and owner of the horse, Major Bill Davidson. His friend Alan York received as a gift from the widow not only the Admiral, but also the complex of problems associated with him, because someone in England is trying to turn horse racing into a means of shameless profit. Alan and the girl he is in love with, Kat Ellery-Penn, begin their own investigation.
Gilbert Keith Chesterton is an English writer, poet, philosopher, playwright, journalist, orator, Christian figure, illustrator, biographer and art historian of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, often referred to as the "prince of paradox". But he is known primarily for his detective stories about Father Brown - a plump, short priest with a big head and a colorless voice. Behind the external absent-mindedness of Father Brown lies the sharp mind of a detective, capable of unraveling the most incomprehensible mysteries. Where did the corpse of a stranger in the garden of a famous detective come from, who could have killed a famous poet in a locked room, who managed to steal silver instruments in front of twelve witnesses? Father Brown will find the answer to all questions.

«Фаворит» — один из лучших романов Дика Фрэнсиса, в котором ярко проявился фирменный стиль писателя: репортерский подход к описанию событий, филигранная проработка сюжета и характеров, превосходное знание темы. Здесь криминальная подоплека не более чем оправа для идей гуманизма, романтики, противостояния добра и зла, благородства и низости.
Недобрым промозглым февральским днем лучший скакун Великобритании по кличке Адмирал неожиданно упал возле очередного препятствия, что привело к смерти наездника и владельца лошади майора Билла Дэвидсона. Его друг Алан Йорк получил в подарок от вдовы не только Адмирала, но и связанный с ним комплекс проблем, ведь кто-то в Англии пытается превратить скачки в средство беззастенчивой наживы. Алан и девушка, в которую он влюблен Кэт Эллери-Пенн, начинают собственное расследование.
Гилберт Кит Честертон английский писатель, поэт, философ, драматург, журналист, оратор, христианский деятель, иллюстратор, биограф и искусствовед конца XIX начала XX веков, часто называемый «принцем парадокса». Но известен он прежде всего своими детективными рассказами об отце Брауне — толстеньком, невысоком священнике с большой головой и бесцветным голосом. За внешней рассеянностью отца Брауна скрывается острый ум сыщика, способный разгадать самые непостижимые тайны. Откуда взялся труп незнакомца в саду знаменитого детектива, кто мог убить известного поэта в запертой комнате, кому удалось украсть серебряные приборы на глазах у двенадцати свидетелей? На все вопросы отец Браун найдёт ответ.

How does AUTO BIDDING work
This is a function that helps you place bids automatically in case your bet is interrupted.
For example, current lot price is UAH 120. You are ready to bargain up to UAH 5 000. Enter 5 000 in the field "Automatic bargaining" and click "Place Bet". As a result, your new rate will appear, but not in the amount of UAH 5 000, but only UAH 121. In this case, the system will remember that you are ready to bargain up to UAH 5 000, and will make the necessary bids for you if the price continues to rise.
Let's say another participant places a bet of UAH 2 000. Then the system will automatically place your bet of 2 001 UAH. And only if someone places a bet more than UAH 5 000, you will receive a notification that your auto rate has been interrupted.
