“A lawyer with nothing left to lose uncovers a nest of family secrets in this layered murder mystery that keeps the twists and turns coming right to the very end.” —Kelly Simmons, author of Not My Boy “I was so excited to dive into Her Final Gamble and was thoroughly impressed by both the story and the characters. Each was well-developed and very interesting. I found myself on the edge of my seat the entire time, constantly second-guessing myself about ‘whodunit.’ The multiple storylines were seamlessly woven together, making me feel like I was living the story rather than just reading it. It’s exceptionally well-written, with characters so relatable you feel as though you know them personally. I can’t wait to see what she writes next!” —Luisa Livorno Ramondo, Author of Beyond the Cobblestones
