    About this audiobook

    “Evanovich…with a dash of CSI.” – Publishers Weekly (review of Lucky Stiff)

    Even a Blind Dog Finds a Bone

    For Lucky O’Toole, she finds killers.

    As the Chief Problem Solver for the Babylon, Las Vegas’s most over-the-top destination, murder is a bit outside of her normal.

    But, armed with a wicked wit and an even more wicked right-cross, Lucky takes it all in stride.

    But tonight taxes even Lucky’s formidable skills.

    LUCKY CATCH

    Lucky’s former lover, Teddie, shows up, hat in hand.

    A gaggle of egomaniacal chefs appear for a televised cook-off.

    And Lucky’s current lover, Jean-Charles, stops answering his phone.

    Since trouble comes in threes, Lucky is sure this is the extent of tonight’s trouble.

    As usual, she’s a tad optimistic.

    A prized Alba truffle disappears from Jean-Charles’s restaurant.

    A young chef is murdered in Jean-Charles’s food truck.

    Jean-Charles still isn’t answering his phone.

    And when Lucky’s path crosses the killer’s will her goose be cooked?

    You want to know…I know you do.

    A light, funny, romantic mystery providing a Vegas escape appropriate for anyone looking for a good laugh. Get your copy today!

      I really like Lucky. And I like the Las Vegas that Deborah Coonts shows in her stories. It's almost like another character. And make no mistake, this series is character driven. These are characters who are fun to know. I binge-read this series (I was a couple of books behind when I got this Early Review book) and never got tired of the characters or the situations. Although more humorous, this series reminds me a lot of the "In Death" series. The characters are that well drawn and that much fun to know. Highly recommended to anyone who likes a little romance with their mystery.

      I received a copy of this book from the LibraryThing Early Reviewers in exchange for an honest review. A humorous, well written mystery that keeps you guessing until the end.
    • 4/5
      Loved this book from the very start. It is very easy to read, fast-paced and the story keeps moving along without too much digression. Lucky's personal life is as interesting as the investigation itself, and I couldn't wait to see what happened in the end. Although I had not read any of her books before, I would definitely read the rest of the series for light entertainment.
    • 4/5
      I wasn´t really sure how I would feel about starting to read a book when there is four other books in this Lucky O'Toole Vegas Adventure Series but to my surprise i didn´t have problems keeping up. I will definitely read the other 4 books when I have more time. Great mystery!
