‘Vegas Die’ events

  Local author Stephen Grogan will appear at several signings for his book, "Vegas Die," this month.
  The book, described by Book Nook guest reviewer Brian Rouff, as more fun than the roller coaster at New York-New York, has an added twist. Within the book's pages are clues to a treasure hunt for a dagger hidden somewhere in Las Vegas that will be worth $25,000 to the person who finds it.
  Rouff details the plot in his blog item last month: "When someone starts bumping off the old-time mobsters of Las Vegas, the mayor (based loosely on our own flamboyant Oscar Goodman) becomes the No. 1 suspect. Mix in an over-the-top cast of card counters, Elvis impersonators and assorted corpses, and you’ve got the ingredients for a sizzling summer page-turner."
