Free Companion Book? Dick Francis's Gamble

The companion audiobook for Dick Francis's Gamble ($9.99 Kindle), by Felix Francis, is supposed to be free at Audible if you have first purchased the Kindle edition, at least, according to the Kindle edition page. The Audible page has a different price, tho, and I'm not sure which you'd end up paying; however, if you own the ebook and want the audiobook, it's worth giving it a shot (and contacting support if it tries to charge you, as they will often make good on the advertised price). If you do, you might want to make your own screenshot of the page to show support (include the date/time in your pic, if possible).
Book Description
One of the youngest winners of the Grand National, Nick “Foxy” Foxton suffered a near-fatal injury that cut short his career. Years later, he’s out for a day at the Grand National races when his colleague, Herb Kovack, is shot at point-blank range right in front of him. Like the police, Nick is baffled: Why would anyone kill such an apparently gentle soul?

Then Nick finds a threatening note in the dead man’s coat, and he begins to doubt how well he really knew his friend. And on discovering that Herb named him beneficiary in his will, Nick wonders why he’s been entrusted with the legacy. Is this a generous gift from a friend, or is it, in fact, a poisoned chalice?
