Running Scared: Elizabeth Lowell

Risa Sheridan knows everything about gold - its allure, its mysteries, its perils. Her boss, Shane Tannahill - owner of the ultra-successful Las Vegas gambling mecca, the Golden Fleece - is addicted to the stuff. Now an ancient Celtic piece has been offered to Shane for his collection with the promise of more to come, and Shane is hooked. Risa shares Shane's enthusiasm but there's something about the piece that says stay away. And soon, people are dying all around them - ancient curse, or murderous greed of unscrupulous adversaries? Whichever it is, there's suddenly no place in the blinding glitter of Vegas for Risa and Shane to hide.
