After reading Ms. Linwood's "Outlaw Muse," ( a book I loved), I was looking forward to her next book, "A Game of Chance." I'm happy to say I was not disappointed.Set in San Francisco in 1870, Linwood weaves a tale of Lily and Jed, both looking for a fair chance in life. I was drawn into the book from the start when identical twins are separated at birth. The book continues with the actions of one twin affecting the other - and not in a good way.Running from a possible hanging, Jed gets himself to San Francisco where he hides in an upper-class bordello where he meets Lily. Mistaken identity, gambling, theft, imposters, murder and family made this story one that I couldn't put down - even with grandchildren running around.
