The Showgirl's Shadow transports readers to the neon-lit underbelly of 1970s Las Vegas, where private investigator Vince "Snake Eyes" Moreno takes on a dangerous case that could make or break him. When topless dancer Tina Velvet vanishes after a private gig for mobbed-up Senator Jack Holt, Vince is hired by Ruby "Red" Callahan to find her.
What starts as a missing person case spirals into a gritty noir thriller filled with blackmail, betrayal, and deadly secrets. As Vince navigates the seedy Silver Slipper, the glitzy Flamingo penthouse, and the desolate desert dunes, he uncovers a web of corruption involving 8mm reels that could destroy Holt's campaign—and everyone tied to it.
With his .38 in hand, a scratched Flamingo chip as his talisman, and a past that haunts him from the '65 dunes, Vince battles greed and paranoia in a city where trust is a losing bet. Ruby's loyalty wavers, Tina's motives darken, and Holt's muscle closes in, forcing Vince to play a high-stakes game where the house always wins—unless you're Snake Eyes.
Packed with pulp action, suspense, and the raw edge of '70s Vegas crime, The Showgirl's Shadow is a must-read for fans of hard-boiled detective stories, noir fiction, and thrilling mysteries. Will Vince cash out or fold in this desert of deception?
