What Really Happens in Vegas
What Really Happens in Vegas: Discover the Infamous City As You've Never Seen It Before | James Patterson
2 posts | 2 read | 1 to read
What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas - until now. Whether you're a Vegas regular or have only heard the city's tales through whispers, this book will surprise and astound you . . . It's not just the five-star dining, or the casinos, or the clubs, or the crowds. It's the electrifying chemistry of America's most round-the-clock city. In this dazzling 24-hour journey, James Patterson lifts the lid on America's notorious hub of gambling and excess. Fuelled by original interviews and in-depth reporting, What Really Happens in Vegas uncovers the vice, crime and entertainment that made Sin City an infamous desert mecca. This is Vegas as you've never seen it before, filled with unbelievable stories from the people who make the city tick, simmer - and even explode. _____________________________ PRAISE FOR JAMES PATTERSON 'Patterson knows where our deepest fears are buried... there's no stopping his imagination' NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW 'A writer with an unusual skill at thriller plotting' GUARDIAN 'The master storyteller of our times' HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON 'No one gets this big without amazing natural storytelling talent - which is what Jim has, in spades' LEE CHILD 'Patterson boils a scene down to the single, telling detail, the element that defines a character or moves a plot along. It's what fires off the movie projector in the reader's mind' MICHAEL CONNELLY 'James Patterson is The Boss. End of.' IAN RANKIN 'It's no mystery why James Patterson is the world's most popular thriller writer ... Simply put: nobody does it better' JEFFREY DEAVER

104/150 If the Las Vegas Tourist Bureau ever wanted a book to promote the city, this is it. If you've never been to Vegas, this book will definitely spark your desire to go, and if you have been there, this will remind you how cool Sin City can be. I think this is the first Patterson book, in a long, long time, that I didn't bail on. 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I loved this book! I‘ve been to Vegas once and this book has me wanting to go again! I was fascinated by the history and reality of it all! I‘ve heard the lore & this was the backstory. Fun!

If you‘ve ever wondered about this town you need to get this book! It was fantastic. Remember I‘m a Vegas novice.
