An out of country adventure proving to be life or death for Lucky. Still reeling from Teddie skipping the country after a murder and trying to track Irv down, Lucky travels to Macau to one of her hotels. Shady police, killer businessmen, and no one is who they seem. Who to trust or not to trust to save her hotel, the man she once loved, and her own life, Lucky battles unknown foes & sworn enemies with high stakes on the table. Non stop action!

At the end of the last book, Lucky’s best friend and former lover, Teddie, was in trouble. In Macau no less. So, even though she’s just about to open her own casino, Lucky flies to China to go to Macau and figure out exactly what is going on. It doesn’t help that someone just tried to murder Miss Minnie and someone else is putting enough pressure on her recently shot father that he is worried that their entire family fortune is about to be lost.
Lots of action, not a lot of depth. I do like that the love triangle that could exist, doesn’t. Other authors would draw out Lucky’s love for Teddie but Coonts allows her to feel a nostalgic love rather than a back and forth.
