In this electrifying tour de force, he takes us into a world of extremes: too much criminality, too much money, and too many ways to die. In L.A. Cassie Black is another beautiful woman in a Porsche: except Cassie just did six years in prison and still has "outlaw juice" flowing in her veins. New York Times bestselling author Michael Connelly writes novels of brilliantly original suspense. Now Cassie is returning to her old profession, taking down a money man in Vegas.
