“Shall we role-play?” Lia asked. “I’ll be the actress. Dean can be the dishwasher from the wrong side of the tracks. Sloan is the mathematics professor, and Michael is the billionaire playboy.”

“Obviously,” Michael replied.

All In is the third installment in four part thriller series by Jennifer Lynn Barnes. I really like the ensemble of characters in this series and immediately bought the final book after finishing this one. Read my full review here. Cover is linked to Goodreads. And Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone!

From the Goodreads Synopsis:

      “Three casinos. Three bodies. Three days.
      After a string of brutal murders in Las Vegas, Cassie Hobbes and the Naturals are called in to investigate. But even with the team’s unique profiling talents, these murders seem baffling: unlike many serial killers, this one uses different methods every time. All of the victims were killed in public, yet the killer does not show up on any tape. And each victim has a string of numbers tattooed on their wrist. Hidden in the numbers is a code—and the closer the Naturals come to unraveling the mystery, the more perilous the case becomes.
      Meanwhile, Cassie is dealing with an equally dangerous and much more painful mystery. For the first time in years, there’s been a break in her mother’s case. As personal issues and tensions between the team mount, Cassie and the Naturals will be faced with impossible odds—and impossible choices.”
