Enter the gritty neon jungle of 1970s Las Vegas with The Neon Widow, a pulse-pounding pulp detective tale by A. Stone. Vince 'Snake Eyes' Moreno, a tequila-soaked PI with a scarred past and a loud polyester suit, gets lured into a deadly game when Lola Grayson, a platinum blonde widow with a smoker's rasp, drops a lipstick-scrawled plea for help in his Desert Rose Motel room. Her husband Jimmy fried mid-jackpot at the Sands—thirty grand vanished, cops call it an accident, but Lola's tears hide a hustle.
With his .38 snubnose hot and greed driving his engine, Snake digs into a web of rigged slots, mob muscle, and double-crosses. From The Silver Slipper's smoky bar to a desert shack showdown, he tangles with Big Sal Russo—gold-knuckled kingpin—and Tommy Sparks, a coked-up slot tech spilling secrets. Lola's sob story cracks wide open—she's no grieving dame but Sal's player, framing Snake as the fall guy for a hit she green-lit.
Bullets fly, blood stains the sand, and the El Camino roars through high-stakes chases as Snake bluffs his way to the truth, snagging a cut of the cash. Packed with snappy dialogue, heart-pounding action, and twists sharper than a rattler's bite, this noir thriller blends retro hardboiled grit with Vegas flash. Will Snake cash out or bleed out?
Perfect for pulp fiction lovers, crime suspense fans, and anyone craving a wild ride through a world of shadows and greed.
