Chris Ewan's The Good Thief's Guide to Vegas is the next caper in a series that's being called "impressive… comic…fresh" ( Publishers Weekly-- starred review). Charlie Howard isn't only a part-time crime writer and part-time thief; he's also a magician. For his next trick, he'll relieve Josh Masters, the famous illusionist vying for the affections of Charlie's agent Victoria, of a fortune in casino chips stashed in his hotel safe. Revenge would be sweet―if there weren't a dead redhead floating in Masters' bathtub and Masters himself hadn't just disappeared in a puff of smoke after cheating at roulette. Convinced that Charlie is in on the scam, the casino's owners give him an impossible mission: pull off an elaborate heist to reimburse the house for every dollar his "accomplice" made off with, or enjoy a one-way trip into the desert. “Ewan masterfully merges the comic with the thrilling in this fresh, captivating book.” ― RT Book Reviews (Top Pick!) “A combination of engaging characterizations, suspenseful stories, and sharp writing, makes the Good Thief novels feel fresh and exciting.” ― Booklist “Charlie's cheeky first-person narrative keeps his caper nicely afloat.” ― Kirkus Reviews “ The Good Thief's Guide to Vegas, the latest gem in Chris Ewan's sparkling series, carries us along on an utterly irresistible sin-city caper. ” ― MEGAN ABBOTT, EDGAR®-WINNING AUTHOR OF QUEENPIN AND BURY ME DEEP “ The Good Thief's Guide to Paris features wonderful descriptions of locale, engaging and wacky characters, and an engrossing plot that will leave readers eager for the next book.” ― Library Journal (Starred review) “Charlie is agreeable company…as he narrates his own skilled thievery and flights of quick thought.
