My name is Anna Dawson, and I'm a gambler. And like any gambler will tell you, sometimes that’s good, and sometimes...not so much. And sometimes it’s an outright problem. I love Vegas, and I love the life I've built, but when one of my friends is murdered, and another one shot at, I know I need to take a serious look at myself. And I need to call in the big guns. Even if that means teaming up with Detective Jack Schiller, a man battling his own demons. Right now I'm just trying to juggle protecting my friends, helping Jack while not letting him get too close, and finding a murderer. And oh yeah, no one can learn about my gambling. Or this will be the last hand I'm dealt. *NOTE: The case is solved, the perpetrator caught, but there are a few threads that are continuing on through the next book and the series. Books in the Anna Dawson series thus far: 1 - Against The Odds 2 - Against The Spread 3 – Against The Rules 4 - Against The Wall 5 - Against The Grain
