Resumen del Editor

With both Peyton and Marco advancing in their careers, they look forward to a future that has never seemed more secure. However, huge decisions face the couple as they begin the next exciting chapter of their lives.

As Marco settles into his role as captain and Peyton navigates the complicated process of becoming the lead in the Hate Crimes Division, Peyton’s first case as an FBI agent suddenly dominates her world once more.

Lance Corporal Daws died of a drug overdose in a sleazy Las Vegas hotel room with a mysterious coin and two napkins with random numbers written on them. Although the case was pulled back to the Las Vegas field office, Peyton has been getting cryptic messages from Enigma, a man who speaks in riddles. With the help of her team, Peyton has never been as close as she is now to cracking the case...

And she’s never been in so much danger.

I’d like some more please!

Pirates in Las Vegas is another excellent addition to the Peyton Brooks, FBI series.

I miss them already (I finished listening about 15-minutes ago).

Another great book in the series...:)

It's been a while since my last meeting with Peyton and Marco and I seem to have forgotten how fast-paced and engaging the books are:)
The plot as always is full of surprises, twists, complications and mysteries; as always, a lot happens also in Peyton's private life - this time she's expecting her first baby, an adventure in itself both for her and Marco. That also adds to the tension - will the elusive enemy attack her while she's carrying or will he be hesitant because of her pregnancy? That is the question we constantly ask ourselves...
I like the structure of the book - coming back and forth in time makes you follow the plotline more intensely as you have to keep up with where you are in the investigation.
As always, the characters are well-defined and well-described, although it definitely would be helpful if you knew previous books in the series: there are a lot of characters that appear for one or two scenes only. As they are all part of Peyton and Marco's circle of co-workers and friends, introduced to us before, their presence in this installment is plausible and logical. But that really huge number of individuals may be confusing for those readers/listeners who are new to the series - and that's the only flaw of the book I can pinpoint:)

Narration by Ms Hazen is very good, as usual, although this time I did not really like some of the voices she's given a few characters (I just remembered these were the ones I didn't like in the previous books either - Ms Hazen is very meticulous about maintaining the same voicing of particular characters throughout a series - which I love about her narrations:)). That said, she's a great interpreter of emotions the characters feel and she carries those emotions to us and brings the whole books to life with her wonderful interpretations.

Kelley Hazen is wonderful!

I love the Peyton brooks mysteries… it they really come to life with Kelley Hazen! Best performance I’ve heard yet probably. Her voices are unique and varied and I love the little things like a hollow phone voice and voicing all the characters and putting it together when they shout in unison. I truly loved this listening experience!

This series never disappoints.

Loved everything about this story. As in the past, it masterfully weaves Peyton’s FBI world with Marco’s police world and the family of friends they’ve gathered around them. It is beautifully performed and held my interest all the way. I was curious, anxious, touched and amused. Perfect!

Doesn’t get much better than this

I was laughing, and crying and rejoicing. This is the best in the series . She knocked it completely out of the park . The level of suspense, and the build up to the revelations took my breath away . Keep them coming M.L and Kelley Hazen. The writing , and narration is just what we need to help be the light in this weary world. A must read indeed .

Great Read

Pirates in Las Vegas (Peyton Brooks, FBI Book 11) was a great read by M.L. Hamilton. Marco and Peyton are both advancing in their careers. Their future seems secure and they are looking forward to it. Marco settles into his role as captain, while Peyton navigates the process of becoming the lead in the Hate Crimes Division. Peyton has still been getting cryptic messages from Enigma, a man who speaks in riddles about the Lance Corporal Daws case. Not only is Peyton close to ending the case, but she's also in incredible danger. I enjoyed reading this book and can't wait to read more by the author.

An Awesome Listen

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the narrator and enjoyed it very much. As with all the other books in this series, this book was hard to turn off. Great characters, with suspense and humor made you want to listen to it to the very end. Peyton and Marco are waiting for the birth of their first child as they continue solving crimes with the help of the friends. The trip to the delivery room had twists and turns to get there, but is was an extremely enjoyable trip. Many mysteries are answered in this book, but the foundation of a new series is also started. Which means we will get to listen to this great combination of author and narrator again. I'm eagerly waiting for the first book in this new series.

Keep them coming!

Another great installment in the series. Peyton is advancing in her career and that brings new challenges. I always enjoy this narrator and the series is great.

Love the story

Peyton and Marco are good characters to follow. I listened to Peyton Brooks' Mysteries Box Set in 2018 and have been following Peyton in The FBI series and hoping there will be more in The Early Years. Kelley Hazen does a great job and draws you into the story. You have to start listening to another book Kelley has narrated because you can't quit just because the story is done..

I just can’t get enough!

All my favorite characters are back and the story kept me on the edge of my seat. All the answers have finally been revealed and it was as great as I expected it to be.

I have been following M.L. Hamilton’s stories for years and I am never disappointed. She has a way with words and can pull you right in to any story she writes. I can’t wait to see what’s to come next.

The right narrator can really take a story to the next level. Kelley Hazen is that narrator. Her timing is impeccable and she consistently portrays the characters across all the books in the series.
