1966 | Mob caught skimming in Las VegasChicago Sun-Times February 6th, 2008, 05:03 AM 4:00 AM, Feb 6, 2008 - <p>Give us points for nerves of steel.</p> Click here to read the article... (http://www.suntimes.com/news/metro/history/778823,CST-NWS-high06.article) deverowe April 10th, 2009, 01:03 PM The above article got my attention because a mob-skimming operation is hi-jacked, which starts off a murder-for-revenge spree in my just- published hard-boiled private eye novel THE FOREVER GIRL by Chris O'Grady ISBN # 1606939939 at The Forever Girl - Christopher O’Grady (http://www.eloquentbooks.com/TheForeverGirl.html) The killings are revenge killings perpetrated by a man found badly beaten in the desert east of The Strip by ex-private eye Jim Brandon. He brings in the cops, but from then on finds himself linked with the vengeance-intent victim when he starts reprisals against thugs employed by the new hotel/casino, Florian's. Jim has to get back into the gumshoe racket just to protect himself and somehow survive. | ||
