Queen of Diamonds

Book #2 in the Ania Series

When Ania Kozak hits Vegas, she's only looking for a place to relax and lay low with her stolen cash and diamonds.

But Sin City has other plans for "Annie."

Cord Needham is a poker circuit champion with an eye for the ladies and a dark secret in his past. Casey Brunnell is a former baseball player fighting the cards and running up debts to a local mobster. When Annie decides to play a dangerous game with both of them, the stakes go through the roof. Everyone scrambles to beat the odds and get out of town with the money...and their lives.

"Fast cards and a dangerous woman equal a sizzling story " - O'Neil De Noux, author of The Long Cold and a SHAMUS and DERRINGER AWARD winner

"Queen of Diamonds is the second collaboration between Frank Zafiro and Jim Wilsky and it's a partnership that runs like a well oiled machine...I've read a lot of books set in Las Vegas, but there are very few I have enjoyed more."
-Chris Leek, independent reviewer
