Master thief, rogue and chancer Gideon Sable is back for another fast-paced supernatural heist - and this time he has the vault of a Las Vegas casino in his sights.
Judi Rifkin is one of the world''s most successful collectors of the weird and unnatural. In a London underworld filled with criminals with very special talents, Judi is a force to be reckoned with.
And Gideon Sable - thief, rogue and chancer - owes her a very large favour.
Judi makes him an offer he can''t refuse: steal her the legendary Masque of Ra, kept safe in a Las Vegas casino, and she''ll wipe the slate clean.
This isn''t Gideon''s first heist by a long shot. But with old grudges threatening to cloud his judgment, an unpredictable crew who don''t entirely trust each other and a formidable supernatural security team guarding his target, this job might be a gamble too far . . .
A Matter of Death and Life is the sequel to The Best Thing You Can Steal,
