in the crosshairs of a serial killer - Vegas Tabloid by P. Moss

Moss depicts the Las Vegas that tourists imagine but rarely see. The grifters, freaks and CEOs for whom the city is a palette of creative larceny, dark secrets and easy debauchery. Put Quentin Tarantino and David Lynch in a room with a laptop and they couldn't dream up the bizarre characters and narrative turns that Moss layers into Vegas Tabloid. --Geoff Schumacher, Author, Sun, Sin & Suburbia: The History of Modern Las Vegas


Description:

Published: October 1st, 2017

Sex, greed and cold-blooded murder highlight this crime fiction thriller about a wisecracking con man and his sideshow troupe of small-time criminals, who accidentally become the most popular performers on the Las Vegas Strip. Suddenly rich and famous, it is life in the fast lane for the fire-eating beauty, sex-crazed midget Elvis, safecracking swami and the rest of this neo-noir cast of social delinquents, until they find themselves in the crosshairs of a serial killer. Armed with little more than street smarts, this band of misfits fight an uphill battle against a bloodthirsty billionaire, a perverted cop and betrayal from within, racing the clock not only to save themselves, but prevent the biggest mass murder in American history.

"Each chapter in this book is like a scene in a retro movie, sometimes seemingly unconnected to what has gone before, but in the end, all the twisted pieces come together in a finale that the reader will find satisfying, in a bloody sort of way.Not for the faint of heart, or readers who are offended by outrageous language and even more outrageous behavior. In this book, the bad guys are really bad, and the good guys are sort of bad as well. But, in the end, good wins out." - Charles, Goodreads
