An Ace Up My Sleeve (2000)
About book: 'Ace' is the first Chase novel I've read (probably re-read) after many years. I read most of the author's works during my teens. I expected to find the book underwhelming and amateurish, reading it as an adult now. I'm happy to say that even after all these years Chase definitely gets the job done for me. 'Ace' packs an exciting plot with a whole lot of twists in a relatively short book. The story is perhaps a bit slow to start off, compared to his other books and I wouldn't say it ranks among his best novels but it is a darned good one - definitely a recommended read for Chase fans or even for those who've never known Chase magic.
