An ancient chalice. A missing man. A mysterious death ...

Retired detective Virginia Holmes arrives in Las Vegas and quickly finds herself taking on more than she bargained for! With the help of her plucky assistant, she'll need to uncover the mystery of an ancient artifact if she has any hope of finding an important executive who's gone missing in the Sin City. But the closer they get to the truth, the faster the bodies pile up.

And if she's not careful, Holmes will be next!

This was a pretty cute read. Possibly easier to read than the actual Sherlock Holmes books as Sam/Fox is pretty funny. Review is written a whole month after reading so I don't remember specifics; the mystery itself wasn't that mysterious (I guessed it from the start), and body was fun with many amusing input from Sam, and the end was "standard" (predictable in the given story situation). Nevertheless a fun read.
