Odds Against Death

When one of Brady's colleagues announces that he will not be returning from his holiday in Italy, and is seen using his mathmatical talents to win at roulette, Brady decides to fly out and convince him to return - but he soon discovers that Professor Owens is working to save his daughter who is being held hostage by the mob... Although another detective story, this time it is obviously written specifically for The Invisible Man and makes full use of his invisible talents for cheating in casinos. There is an interesting point when Brady's meddling again almost gets someone killed although as in Play for Death it is quickly brushed over.
