"Vegas deals in cards, but tonight it’s a deadly hand." 
In the underbelly of Sin City, Bert knew he was playing with fire. Seven players entered a shadowy back room for a game of Crazy Eights, fueled by ambition and desperation. Only four walked out alive. Among them was Bert—a flashy card counter whose golden run had finally turned into a deadly gamble. Now, all he wants is to escape the neon claws of Las Vegas. 
Every glint of his garish suit and piece of gold jewelry made Bert a spectacle on the casino floors, but in the secret rooms of high stakes and higher risks, those same traits made him a target. A mysterious adversary has marked him, and now he must navigate a city that once welcomed him as a king but now wants him silenced. 
In pursuit are Tony and Troy, enigmatic twins who once dreamed of wearing FBI badges but now serve the shadows. Known as TNT for their explosive methods, they’ll stop at nothing to uncover who’s really dealing the cards. As Bert eyes the horizon, hopes pinned on a new disguise, a long-lost friend, and an Uber ride into anonymity, the hunter becomes the hunted in this taut game of cat and mouse. 
Can Bert's wits outplay the ultimate bluff, or will Vegas claim its due? In this stark, cutting edge audio tale from the Solitaire Series, the stakes have never been higher, and folding is not an option.

Sherlock Holmes: The Problem of...

Conan Doyle

Neil Gibson, the Gold King and former senator from "some Western state", approaches Sherlock Holmes to investigate the murder of his wife Maria in order to clear his children's governess, Grace Dunbar, of the crime. It soon emerges that Mr Gibson's marriage had been unhappy and he treated his wife very badly. He had fallen in love with her when he met her in Brazil, but soon realised they had nothing in common. He became attracted to Miss Dunbar; since he could not marry her, he had attempted to please her in other ways, such as trying to help people less fortunate than himself. 
Maria Gibson was found lying in a pool of blood on Thor Bridge with a bullet through the head and note from the governess, agreeing to a meeting at that location, in her hand. A recently discharged revolver with one shot fired is found in Miss Dunbar's wardrobe. Holmes agrees to look at the situation in spite of the damning evidence. 
From the outset, Holmes observes some rather odd things about the case. How could Miss Dunbar so coolly and rationally have planned and carried out the murder and then carelessly tossed the murder weapon into her wardrobe? What was the strange chip on the underside of the bridge's stone balustrade? Why was Mrs Gibson clutching the note from Miss Dunbar when she died? If the murder weapon was one of a matched pair of pistols, why couldn't the other one be found in Mr Gibson's collection?

Paladin - The Welsh Guard Mysteries

Sarah Woodbury

Catrin and Rhys travel to Windsor Castle for their third medieval mystery together... 
August 1284. On the heels of King Edward's triumph over Wales, the high point of his reign thus far, he receives the worst news possible: his eldest living son and heir to the throne of England has died. Concerned that his victories in Wales, and even more the means by which he came by them, have brought the wrath of the Almighty down upon his house, King Edward sends Catrin and Rhys to Windsor Castle to investigate. 
But although they find victims and villains aplenty, their far greater test—of friendship, loyalty, and allegiance—is managing the expectations of a grieving king, who fears his son was murdered—and fears even more that he wasn't. 
Paladin is the third book in The Welsh Guard Mysteries.
