Peak Road - A Short Thriller (Jon Stanton Mysteries Book 10) - Plot & Excerpts
Mickey asked if I was hungry, and I was. We stopped at a ribs restaurant in a hotel off the Strip. The valet took the car, and we wandered through the casino. The dings, beeps, rattles, and bright lights brought the tightness to my chest again. I had to close my eyes for a moment and just breathe. It didn’t help much because the air tasted and smelled like cigarettes. When I opened my eyes, Mickey was watching me. “I’m fine,” I said. “You sure?” “Yeah.” I followed him to the restaurant on the south side of the casino. A black curtain separated it from the gambling floor. A host stood behind a podium, pressing buttons on a computer screen. “Two, please. As far from the gambling as we can get,” Mickey said. She led us to a seat against the back wall. I could still hear the sounds of the machines, but it wasn’t as pronounced.
