A review by bent
Dead Man's Hand by George R.R. Martin

4.0

A return to form after a disappointing sixth book. This one focuses on two main characters, Jay Ackroyd and Yeoman in their separate efforts to find out who killed Chrysalis. This book takes place simultaneously with the one before it, Ace in the Hole, but is set primarily in New York. I occasionally found this book a little confusing - it was hard to remember which character had discovered which information - but overall, it was a fairly compelling read. More what I have come to expect from this series than its disappointing predecessor.
