    The weirdness level of my life has reached an all-time high. Which is saying something, considering I started out as a psychic conman and somehow ended up as a MagiPol agent. And not just any agent. Lately, I've been Captain Blythe's right-hand man and most trusted confidant. 
     
     
     
    Yeah, I know. Super weird. 
     
     
     
    It's also kind of awkward because, unbeknownst to her, I've also teamed up with her most loathed nemesis, Darius King, guild master of the Crow and Hammer and the number one guy on the Consilium's "To Be Eliminated" list. 
     
     
     
    Oh, and the Consilium? It's just a secret organization embedded deep in the upper echelons of the MPD that's using its nefarious influence to take over the world. Or destroy it. We're still figuring that part out. 
     
     
     
    "We" being me and Blythe. And me and Darius. But not Blythe and Darius. Like I said, it's awkward. 
     
     
     
    Unfortunately, the Consilium knows we're on to them. It's only a matter of time before they reveal how much power they truly wield—and eliminate all three of us for good.

    Jack’s next move takes him to the pulsing heart of Vegas nightlife—a club where the stakes are high, but the risks are higher. 
    In The Ace of Clubs, the eighth thrilling installment of The Solitaire Series, Jack enters a vibrant Vegas nightclub in search of a high-stakes game to rebuild his bankroll. But the club is no ordinary venue—it’s a domain ruled by Ace, a ruthless operator with an eye on everything and everyone. 
    As Jack tries to stay under the radar, he finds himself crossing paths with Burt, the eccentric card counter with a knack for finding trouble. Burt’s attempts to shadow Jack draw the attention of Ace, who sees an opportunity to turn Burt into his pawn. Now under Ace’s command, Burt must spy on Jack or risk disappearing into the night. 
    Amidst the flashing lights and pounding music, alliances are forged and betrayals unfold. Jack faces challenges at every turn, including Solitaire operatives, Ace’s unrelenting grip on the city’s underground, and Burt’s unsteady loyalty. 
    In this high-stakes chapter, the cards on the table aren’t just about money—they’re about survival. As Jack fights to stay ahead, the question remains: will he outplay the house, or will he fold under the weight of his enemies?

With cauldrons, and potions, and vampires popping out of coffins, everyone thinks the dead clown on the floor is just part of the haunted house festivities. Until it turns out he’s really dead. With so many people in disguise, and magic and spells abounding on All Hallows’ Eve, no one is above suspicion. Lily, with her clue chalkboard, is always ready to solve a puzzle, but Gage is worried about her safety. As Lily and Gage race to unmask the murderer, will the clown-killer get the last laugh?
