Detective Levi Abrams and PI Dominic Russo are reunited and more committed to each other than ever, but they can't truly move forward with their lives until the serial killer who's been tormenting them is behind bars. When a secret burial site is discovered in the desert with the remains of the Seven of Spades's earliest victims, that goal finally seems within reach. But just as the net is tightening, the Neo-Nazi militia Utopia launches their master plan with a devastating act of terror that changes the landscape of Las Vegas forever. As Levi and Dominic scramble to prevent the city's destruction, they're opposed by treacherous forces that propel them toward catastrophe. In the end, Levi's fate may rest in the hands of the very killer he's been hunting. The race to save Sin City is on, and these players are going for broke. No matter how hopeless things seem, as long as they're together and they've got a chip to play and a chair to sit in, they're still in the game.… (more)

What a finish! Whoof. I took so long to finish this one (20 days) because I knew it was likely the last one, but also because it gets bonkers-level tense, which for me means I need breaks. But it's SO GOOD. All the way to the very last line good.

I skimmed a few reviews before starting this (I often do that, scoffing at the warnings about curiosity) and LOL'd at one reviewer saying it was unrealistic. On the one hand, sure. It's a lot to think about. But on the other, SoS hasn't been acting alone for quite a long time, so. And all the hate's what we're seeing rise right now - WAY too real. (See break-taking note above.)

Just looked up my review of the first book, Kill Game - I've been reading these for less than a year? It feels like they've always been a part of me. ( )

Another good series that I really, really hate to see come to an end. Those who have followed Levi and Dominic through the last four books won't be disappointed by the 5th. Dominic and Levi are back together and determined to make it last between them. This final book is like watching a well-made cops and robbers "shoot ‘em" up movie complete with dramatic explosions...huge gun battles...exciting other moments...and even some comic dog relief; Needless to say, it’s thrilling, edgy and suspenseful. All the questions are answered, everything that was a mystery is a mystery no longer. What we have left are people who are trying to survive the loss...the lies...and the guilt. Hope that somehow, there is some way that we can meet Levi and Dominic again. Oh... I was never right about who the seven of Spades was. Never would have guessed it in a thousand years:) ( )

I liked it, but some things didn't make sense.
There was one crucial detail that I either missed or wasn't mentioned before (probably the former) which would have made me rethink the identity of the killer. In the end I was right though, that important detail didn't seem to matter, which is odd, but okay.

Levi's friendship with Leila. What the actual hell was that about? Just because they kicked some Utopia asses together with their ninja moves, doesn't mean they became friends. So both of their hurt feelings were unwarranted in my opinion.

Leila's reaction to the Seven of Spades' identity reveal was absolutely eye-roll worthy.
I liked everything else though, predictable as it was.Dom and Levi became one of my all time fave couples.
Highly recommend this series. ( )
