Title: Good Rollicking, Las Vegas Thriller
Product review: This is Swain's first Tony Valentine novel and it's a good one. The book centers around a massive scam aimed at a raggedy Las Vegas hotel casino and features characters that would do justice to Elmore Leonard or Damon Runyon. Protagonist Valentine, an aging retired Atlantic City cop and now casino consultant, is a worthy hero and provides the book's locomotion. Swain knows how to write a breezy book that keeps you rapt from page one. His knowledge of gambling and casino operations, combined with his writing ability and imagination, offers up a tale that is a delight to the reader.
