Publisher's summary

FBI Profiler Chase Adams is back for the third installment in the best-selling series!

Someone is targeting high-stakes poker games in Las Vegas, brutally murdering the players and stealing the cash. They leave no evidence, no witnesses, no calling cards behind. What's even more bizarre is that even with all the cameras in Las Vegas at their disposal, Chase and her team have no idea how the killers got in or out of the hotel room.

In a city known for its glitz, glamour, and magic, it appears as if the FBI have a real-life Houdini on their hands. And the only way to reveal the true nature of this deadly trick might be to go undercover.

Except the last time Chase went undercover, she was left with scars that remain with her to this day. This time, the potential for devastation is far worse.

But who else can infiltrate the best poker games in Vegas and stop the killer or killers before they strike again?

Fabulous book

I have really enjoyed listening to this, book and especially the narrator. She sounded excellent !!!

Patrick Logan needs a better narrator!

I'm so disappointed because I really love Patrick Logan's series'...but the person who narrates the Chase Adams series is just awful - if I could give her zero stars, I would. I am suffering through it nonetheless because I paid for the darn book so I'm gonna listen to it!
This narrator, Lainie Pahos, her voice is so whiny and nasally and she reads so darn fast that I had to slow the reading pace down to .90 to make the sound of her voice tolerable at least. And oh my god when she tries to do voices of anyone other than a male character or the main character as an adult her voice is even worse! Like, it makes me want to claw my own eardrums out. And unfortunately there's a lot of story that deals with flashbacks/nightmares of a character's past so there is a LOT of whining you have to listen to.
I feel like this narrator just doesn't understand the characters or maybe doesn't understand how people really act and sound in these scenarios. I mean, when she's not making all the child characters whine constantly, then she's making all the male characters sound like total d-bags or idiots.
Oh - and as if her shrill voice isn't bad enough - there's tons of mistakes, tons of long periods of silence, tons of times where it sounds like she's in a bathroom for the first half of the chapter and then switches to a studio for the second half, tons of places where you can totally tell she had to make a correction for some reason or another, and tons of times where you can hear her swallowing really loudly (which is absolutely disgusting sounding if you ask me).
I wish I could pick the narrator along with the book...I will never listen to books with Lainie Pahos as the narrator ever again. I don't care how good the book is, I can't handle anymore of her terrible narration. You'd think she'd get better over time but it actually seems like the opposite. She needs to just stop.
The story itself is good, but it's honestly been difficult for me to focus on it fully with the distraction of how awful the narrator is.

Patrick Logan... probably my new favorite author

First I listened to Detective Damien Drake... couldn’t get enough... Then when I heard Chase and Campbell both had their own series, I was excited! So far well worth my amazon credits! Thanks Patrick Logan for getting me through some long car rides and hospital stays! Keep on Writing!
