It is an exceptional book. -- S. M. Chris Franzblau, former federal prosecutor and criminal defense attorney for alleged organized crime figures and professional boxers Jeffrey Sussman’s research and attention to detail make this book the go-to source on the infamous relationship between the Mob and Las Vegas.
