She's crossed paths again with her life's nemesis, the man who destroyed everything six years before. He's Jack Karch, a private investigator by day who does bloody work for casino owners by night. Walking back into his sights is the worst thing that's ever happened to Cassie. Getting out alive will take all her skill and luck and faith in that one good thing .

I have been a fan of Michael Connelly's for a long time. This standalone was different, and I enjoyed it very much. Highly recommended.

Very entertaining
Typical of what I've come to expect from Michael Connelly. Gripping, well-developed story and characters. Enjoyable reading from start to finish.

Good But Slow Start
This is an early non Harry Bosch Connelly book. It started slow and a bit uneven but picked up and finished well. It had some typical Connelly moves in it, like giving you just a piece of the story and given you more and more as the book goes on. Overall it was well done and it was nice to see two characters used in a later Bosh book, one minor character and the other miniscule.
