Synopsis
Welcome to the City of Sin, where casino families reign, gangs infest the streets…
and secrets hide in every shadow.
Enne Salta was raised as a proper young lady, and no lady would willingly visit New Reynes, the so-called City of Sin. But when her mother goes missing, Enne must leave her finishing school—and her reputation—behind to follow her mother’s trail to the city where no one survives uncorrupted.
Frightened and alone, her only lead is a name: Levi Glaisyer. Unfortunately, Levi is not the gentleman she expected—he’s a street lord and a con man. Levi is also only one payment away from cleaning up a rapidly unraveling investment scam, so he doesn't have time to investigate a woman leading a dangerous double life. Enne's offer of compensation, however, could be the solution to all his problems.
Their search for clues leads them through glamorous casinos, illicit cabarets and into the clutches of a ruthless mafia donna. As Enne unearths an impossible secret about her past, Levi's enemies catch up to them, ensnaring him in a vicious execution game where the players always lose. To save him, Enne will need to surrender herself to the city…
And she’ll need to play.

This was my 1st Amanda Foody book and
will not be the last. This was an interesting ride with plenty twist and turns.
Enne and Levi were an interesting pair to read about. I cannot wait until their
next instalment. Plenty of Rogues, Thieves and other unique characters are
within this story. The authors writing style is unique and enjoyable. I have
had the pleasure of going to Las Vegas many, many years ago and it was enjoyable
to read a story that has a Vegas type atmosphere.
Great book for YA fantasy lovers.
