Gin Blanco, a talented cook, owner of a barbecue joint, and an assassin extraordinaire known as the Spider, also serves as the queen of the city of Ashland's underworld. Discovering that a secret society called the Circle may be actually running the show from behind the scenes, and that her mother may have been involved, Gin searches for answers that are not forthcoming. When her foster brother Finnegan Lane inherits an Old West theme park and hotel resort called Bullet Pointe, the siblings decide to get away for a few days and check out Finn's new property. Cowboy shoot-outs and saloons may seem silly at first, but then the mystery of missing jewels and the appearance of Circle assassins turn their vacation into a wild and deadly confrontation.
VERDICT Estep's most recent series outing (after Bitter Bite) brings fresh revelations and fierce action. Gin's continued search for the truth about her mother's past and her own struggle to survive enemies make each book a distinct journey.
