Perilous Gambit (Mike Stoneman Thriller #5)

A dead body can ruin a wedding.

Jackie ran off to Las Vegas to perform in a high-class drag revue. His sister, Rachel, is in Vegas to get married and to introduce her drag queen brother to her fiancé, NYPD homicide detective Jason Dickson. When the star of the drag show is murdered, the local cops peg Jackie as the prime suspect. Jackie turns to Jason and his partner, Mike Stoneman, for help.

After an attempt on Jackie’s life, getting arrested is the least of their worries. When the local FBI gets involved and the drag queen’s murder links together with a high-profile political blackmail scheme and a Vegas organized crime boss . . . a relaxing week in Sin City is out the window. Mike and Jason need to get Rachel to the altar alive -- and keep Jackie out of prison. Welcome to the family, Jason.

Book #5 in the Mike Stoneman series, but a fully stand-alone story.
