Here is the link to my March 26, 2014, review of the Lawrence Block novel Lucky at Cards.

In my review, I discuss my ideas about how the plot devices of some mystery/crime novels seem to be about regaining balance and integrating with society, and how Lucky at Cards subverts that dynamic a little. I discuss my feeling about some character arcs, as well as the love scenes, the pacing, the story's POV, and some other characters I like.
