About the Book

If you think the mob is out of Las Vegas, think again. Old mobsters sent their kids to college and a new mob took over in the form of predatory banksters and hedge fund managers. This new breed of hooligans made Bugsy Seigel, Meyer Landsky, Lucky Luciano, Joseph Aiuppa, Nic Civilla, Gus Greenbaum and Tony Spilatro look like choir boys. There's just too much money to walk away and let enterprising casinos have it all. The power base shifted to take heat off mob bosses in 80s. If everything goes according to plan, the entire State of Nevada will soon be divided up between the families anyway-with the skim tucked away in mob owned hedge funds, a villainous stock market and tax free off-shore bank accounts.A new set of jackals appeared on the Vegas scene with plenty of money to risk backing casinos anxious to expand their playgrounds-but state officials turned a blind eye to where all the money originated. Casinos aren't the only arena in Nevada where there's big money to be made. Nuclear waste is the ugly by-product of an increasing appetite for power in America. No other states want a dump site, which is radioactive for a billion years, in their backyard. The trucking company who delivers such a volatile nuclear cocktail will make millions hauling a devastating dilemma created by government stupidity and human greed. The barren wastelands of Nevada, populated by coyotes, jackrabbits and snakes seemed like a perfect place to create a vault bored deep into mountains standing guard over uninhabited alkali flats.When a grisly fire in a suite at Caesar's Palace claims the life of the most beautiful showgirl in Las Vegas, Detective Danny Armstrong is assigned to the case. Citizen outrage is at an all-time high because the showgirl was a media darling. An ambassador for tourism, Glitter traveled the world with the Las Vegas Visitors and Convention Authority to promote the gaudy capital of the world.Every clue leads down one blind alley after another. In desperation, Danny turns to the psychic used by every detective at Metro-his mother, Catherine Armstrong. The gifted visionary senses one man sits like a spider at the center of a convoluted web of death and destruction. She warns Danny a plague, like no other in history, is about to be unleashed on Nevada. Catherine feels Glitter was murdered for her part in a frightening vision.Casino bosses, politicians, and a high-ranking military officer with ties to Area 51contractors become sign posts linking the murdered showgirl to New Jersey mob boss, Jake Russo. A simple twist of fate, provided by Catherine Armstrong's psychic powers, uncovers a secret connection to Russo and the owner of a major strip casino, Jordan Gray. Once the foundation of lies and deceit are exposed, Danny soon discovers the mob never really left Las Vegas. Like a virus, it mutated and changed form to continue living off its lucrative host.Prompted by voices from a void which defies human logic, Catherine is guided to the one person who has critical information. This woman is about to be murdered by Russo's henchmen before she can ignite the powder keg which will destroy his operation, along with key figures in the casino industry, military and existing political power structure.Kristin Hastings, sister of the senior Senator from Nevada, and COO for a string of family casino scattered across the northern part of the state, is Jack Russo's long-time lover. Russo planned to use Glitter to infiltrate the highest levels of power and report back to him. He never counted on her falling in love with the God-forsaken Mojave Desert.
