Publisher's Synopsis
April in the Sierra, the ski season is almost over and it is the perfect weather for gamblers. Nina Reilly, the sole practitioner at Lake Tahoe and developing a reputation as an erratically brilliant local lawyer, hears their stories all day long: stories about their wins, their divorces, the bankruptcies, the purse-snatchings, the week-long binges and the overdoses. It is not a pretty picture. Then one gambler gets murdered, and suspicion falls on the winner of the biggest jackpot in Tahoe's history, Nina's new client - and a girl who won't tell anyone her name...
