Annotation |
This book follows the mob from the east coast in the 1920s to Las Vegas in the 1930's. The FBI did virtually nothing to stop the frenzy, murder, deceit, scams, and skimming as the Mob took control of casino after casino, killing the competition. In the 1960's, the FBI finally started cracking down, but it took twenty more years before they could say the Mob was out of Vegas. Some descriptions of sex, some strong language, and some violence.
