Vegas Die: A Quest Murder Mystery

By S.P. Grogan and Stephen Grogan

Book Overview

SOMEONE IS KILLING OFF THE OLD MOBSTERS OF LAS VEGAS AND THE MAYOR IS THE #1 SUSPECT. When Casino Executive Owen McCombs discovers a dead gangster in the trunk of the Mayor's car, he needs to find answers quick. In Vegas Die, the best stereotypical Sin City characters and events pop up: the imploding casino, the buxom stripper, the nerdy card counter, superstar twins, the Elvis impersonator, the Graffiti Vigilante, and associated corpses, immolated, shot, sliced, and diced. In deadly play is also the desperate hunt for $7 million in twice stolen jewelry. Vegas Die won an award for Best Regional Fiction and was selected by the Las Vegas Review Journal as one of the best selections for summertime reading. This newly revised and updated edition of this classic novel includes a hidden mystery for readers to solve.

Best value for your money!

I finished Vegas Die about a month ago but I've become involved in trying to find the hidden "dagger". What a blast. This is the most fun I've ever had with a book. In fact it's taking up a lot of time but with a possible reward of 25,000.00 to whoever finds the dagger, it's well worth it. I've also attended a meeting of fellow "Questors" who are also searching for the dagger. No need to live in Las Vegas as a guess within 15 ft. will be close enough. Buy this book and join the treasure hunt. You won't regret it. The book is rated by me as PG (Parental Guidance 16 or over I'd say in one chapter.) LVsuprstar

Very Entertaining

Fun book. I don't usually read alot but I managed to finish this one off in about four sittings. Toward the end, it is very difficult to lay it down!

Excellent on all counts.

This book is very gripping and the community of Questors surrounding the hunt for the $25,000 makes it even more exciting. You do not need to be a local to Vegas (or need to have ever even been there) to solve the location of the hidden dagger. I am truly hoping this book gives me the excuse I need to buy a ticket to Sin City for a little treasure hunting. If you like mysteries and Vegas (who doesn't?) then you need to read this book. The author, Stephen Grogan, is a former crime-scene reporter and brings to life the attention to detail that investigators have. This fantastic story is riddled with sub-plots, puzzles, and mysteries within the mystery. A sequel is in the works and I am already looking forward to it.

"Hey, this guy's really good!"

A great read from a first time author. Grogan's intimate knowledge of Las Vegas combined with his ability to create memorable characters and unforgettable prose makes me anxious to see his next effort. Discovering Grogan makes me feel like earlier readers must have felt when they picked up the first books by authors like Deaver and Patterson and said, "Hey, this guy"s really good!"

Mystery lovers rejoice!

"Vegas Die" is a truly entertaining must read. Grogan has taken the crime novel genre & given it an innovative new spin: finding the notorious $25,000 dagger hidden somewhere in Vegas. Brilliant! Everyone's always looking for an excuse to come to Vegas; now there's even more reason to: buy the book & come search for this valuable dagger . . . Can't wait for Stephen's next book.
