Dick Francis? (... remembering one book in which rabbits being raised were
significant)

Not Dick Francis. The author is American. I'll enter another quote soon.

Sorry to be so slow. Here's another quote:
"Does it work?" I asked Mr. Marble.
He nodded. "I've drilled a lot of wells where people have called dousers to
pick the spot and I've got some very good wells. On the other hand, I've
got some good wells where I've picked the spot by spitting."
"How do you pick the spot by spitting?"
"Well, you just spit someplace and then drill where you spit. However I
don't claim as much for that method as the dousers do for theirs."

Wait, wait! Aren't you going to tell us who it is? Must we remain in
suspense forever?
