A SETUP IN SIN CITY

 

When her old friend Martha decided to get married in Las Vegas, Jessica Fletcher made the trip to watch her walk down the aisle. But what were the odds that she’d be back two years later—to watch Martha stand accused of her husband’s murder?

 

Jessica’s never been one to gamble, but she’s willing to bet that Martha isn’t guilty. Martha’s husband was a high-rolling Las Vegas local with three ex-wives and plenty of jealous acquaintances. After joining Martha’s defense team, Jessica combs through the man’s past to find the real killer. But as the media attention grows—and Jessica is interviewed by the news anchors of Court TV—the stakes are raised, and Jessica learns how to play for keeps.

I just started reading the book today. This review isn't about the store itself but the book condition itself. The condition of the book is pretty much very good, almost like new, but the printed content is definitely not the best. The first few pages the print is very thick, like the pages were printed and then copied over - but not quite a match. And the first 16 pages, the last line or two are completely missing. I'm hoping no clues or relevant information wasn't in those lines. After page 16, the print clears up and the page tops and bottoms are complete. It has made reading these first pages uncomfortable - not enjoyable. I can't say it's the seller's fault.

A great story, one you sink your teeth into. I fully enjoy trying to figure out who commented the murder and why they did. The book keep you on the edge of your seat until end of the book. Looking forward to my next book.

4.0 out of 5 stars classic trial murder mystery
Reviewed in the United States on August 25, 2011

In reading 'You bet your life', I found myself drifting to old Perry Mason mysteries. I thoroughly enjoyed how drawn in I was to the descriptive ways the author pulled me in, with the glamorous hotels and yet within the same chapter the disdain of a jail cell in Las Vegas. The characters were intriguing and well thought out. The only critique I would mention was how quickly the ending came to a close, but overall I found the reading well written and thoughtfully researched. I would recommend it to all, especially anyone who enjoys trial mysteries.

I'm a huge fan of both the TV show and these books. They're just delightful reads - easy, intriguing, full of colorful characters, and not gruesome! Bought this without realizing I'd read it before, but just as good a read the second time around!

I love the Murder, She Wrote books. Jessica can get herself into trouble but with the help of law enforcement, it is amazing how she finds out who killed the victim, how & why plus gets out of frightening situations.
