This book was wonderful. Learning more about the character of Jax and reading about his friends and his dog Ace again, felt like coming home. The warmth of the character's relationships and the great writing really drew me into the story.

In this one, we learn more about Jax's mysterious beginnings and his growing relationship with a singer named Laura. His dog Ace is all grown up and is still helping Jax and now Laura as well, to solve mysteries and helping to keep them safe.

If you haven't read a Jax Diamond book yet, I highly recommend them. They take place in the 1920's-30's during a time when mob bosses and gangsters were big in places like New York and Chicago. Gail Meath does a marvelous job of bringing it all to life once more.

Thank you to BookSirens, the author and publisher the chance to read this book and this is my honest review.
