I think this is the second book that features the Camel Club and it's leader Oliver Stone. I've thoroughly enjoyed both. I borrowed this audio from my sister and Candleman and I listened to it on our long-loop drive in Arizona. We were both a bit confused after the first CD, what with the plethora of characters and a couple of separate storylines, but we persevered and were duly rewarded.
The Camel Club is a group of four dysfunctional crime solvers headed by ex-Cia assassin Caleb Shaw, who now goes by the name Oliver Stone. When a good friend is murder they take up the hunt to discover the murderer.
In a subplot, a beautiful young woman is planning an ingenious con on a sleazy owner of a Atlantic City casino. I liked wondering how in the world the two plots were going to merge. When they did the plot grew thicker, as they say.
I'm looking forward to the next book featuring the Camel Club.

Based on the books you listed in the comments at my blog, I think I'd like your book club!
OK, so I worded my comment a little oddly! What I was trying to say was "I like your book choices"!
Terri, I understood what you meant. And thanks for the vote of confidence.
I've only read one book by this author and that was his Christmas book. I really did like it. I need to try this series. Thanks for the great review!
The Camel Club books are fabulous! Wait until you get to Stone Cold. . .

I've read a couple of books by Baldacci that I LOVED. But I haven't read any that feature the Camel Club. Looks like I should probably add them to the list!!
I'll have to add this to my TBR list. I'll have to find the first one. I think the cover is really neat looking.
