Publisher's Summary

A gripping, suspenseful crime novel.

Detectives Laura Baxter and Jack Holt are members of the elite: Las Vegas Metro PD, one of the toughest and most respected law enforcement agencies in the United States. In the middle of a city with two million residents and 43 million annual visitors, they’re hunting for a killer.

The crime: audacious.

At the heart of a glamorous Las Vegas hotel, in front of hundreds of witnesses and under the lenses of countless video surveillance cameras, a young girl is brutally murdered. What promises to be a quick and easy investigation soon becomes a nightmare. The most recorded crime in Vegas is missing one key protagonist, the killer.

The forensics: stupefying.

A crime-scene fingerprint unleashes dozens of unsettling questions instead of providing answers. Was this a murder for hire? In the politically-charged case, the scenario seems plausible; the victim’s secret life could’ve been the obstacle in an ambitious politician’s path. As the investigation unspools the well-concealed secrets surrounding the girl’s life, Baxter and Holt attract the attention of someone desperate to keep history’s terrible secrets buried.

The truth: shocking.

A testimony from beyond the grave turns into a death warrant for the two unrelenting detectives. While they expose a connection with the victim’s distant past that could hold the key to catching her killer, they must learn to rely on each other to survive.

Two mavericks don’t make a team. Baxter and Holt trust each other with their lives, only not with their darkest secrets.

Fans of James Patterson, David Baldacci, Karin Slaughter, and Robert Dugoni will be engrossed in this un-pause-able police procedural that will keep you listening until the break of dawn.

Oh my, that English accent is terrible

The story is ok but predictable. Most annoying is the narrator, the English accent is terrible. Not the worst book I have listened to just ok.

Grating accents but great book

I hate criticising narrators - I've always appreciated how daunting it must be to have the responsibility for bringing an author's words to life in an audio book. I have to be honest, however: many interpretations of British (& Aussie) accents are so exaggerated and annoying that I give up and turn to a different Audible title before even finishing the first chapter... and this was unfortunately looking like one such book, but the story was strong enough to keep me interested (even if I did spend a lot of the time cringing while I listened to it!). I really like Leslie Wolfe's writing and will definitely read her other books. I just won't be rushing into any more audio books with lead characters who sound so stilted and emotionless.
