      „A Chip and a Chair“ ist der letzte Band der fünfteiligen Thriller-Serie von Cordelia Kingsbridge. Die Bücher sollten in der richtigen Reihenfolge gelesen werden. Die vorangegangenen Ereignisse haben Detective Levi Abrams und Privatdetektiv Dominic Russo mehr denn je zusammengeschweißt, aber die Pik-Sieben wirft immer noch einen Schatten über ihr Leben. Erst wenn der brutale Serienmörder hinter Gittern sitzt, können sie sich ihr Glück gestatten und aufatmen. Als in der Wüste eine Grabstätte mit früheren Opfern der Pik-Sieben entdeckt wird, scheint dieses Ziel endlich in greifbare Nähe zu rücken. Das Netz zieht sich zu. Ausgerechnet jetzt startet die Neonazi-Miliz Utopia ihren Masterplan mit einem verheerenden Terrorakt, der Las Vegas für immer verändert. Während Levi und Dominic versuchen, die Zerstörung der Stadt zu verhindern, müssen sie sich heimtückischen Kräften stellen, die sie in die Katastrophe treiben. Am Ende könnte Levis Schicksal ausgerechnet in den Händen des Mörders liegen, den er schon so lange jagt. Das Rennen um die Rettung der Stadt der Sünde hat begonnen, und alle Spieler gehen aufs Ganze. Es heißt: Alles oder nichts. Doch egal, wie aussichtslos die Lage auch scheint, solange Levi und Dominic noch einen Chip und einen Stuhl am Tisch haben, sind sie weiterhin im Spiel.
