About
Jack "Lucky" Riordan is anything but lucky. The illegitimate son of Howard Hughes, he and his mother are cast out of Las Vegas, when Hughes learns of the pregnancy, only for Jack to return years later to make his fortune.
Jack might not have luck. But, he has an eye for a quick con. His skills soon allow him to climb the ladder as head of security for one of Glitter Gulch's most ruthless casinos, where cheating will get you jail, if you're not crippled by security first.
Jack sees it all: the corruption of fast money, the ways his friends will stab in the back for a shot at a jackpot, and the allure of women who will do anything to hit the big time. But, the big time in Vegas always comes at a cost...and Jack is about to learn the price of life in Sin City.
