The Last Days of Las Vegas Summary & Highlights
	In Europe a powerful military exile from Iraq pulls the strings of an international conspiracy that will return him as Iraq's new dictator. Fueled with billions of dollars from Saddam's looted fortune, the tentacles of his plot reach from his war-torn homeland to the glittery streets of Las Vegas, and much of the world in between.
	In the Arctic Circle a former Soviet intelligence operative recruits a nuclear technician.
	In Kuwait a suicide pilot skims his explosives-laden plane low over the desert toward a 5-star luxury hotel.
	In Santa Barbara a discarded espionage czar schemes to reenter the great game, while making an end run around America's traditional intell community.
	In a breakaway rogue nation an arms merchant sells RPGs, surface-to-air missiles, anti-tank charges, plastique explosives, and thousands of AK-47s to a shadowy Russian facilitator, for shipment to Iraq . . . and Las Vegas.
	In Washington D.C. senators, members of the House, lobbyists, and intelligence operatives cut deals to return the exiled Iraqi general to Baghdad as his nation's new strongman.
	In London a billionaire Russian on the run from Moscow deludes himself that he is untouchable in his heavily-armored Bentley.
	In the Ukraine two thick lead containers of lethal, highly-enriched nuclear materials are loaded onto an international flight, destined for Nevada.
	And . . . in Las Vegas a bungled assassination attempt propels a burned-out American intelligence operative into action. His name is Charles Remly - or perhaps it is not - and he reluctantly shoulders the assignment to keep Las Vegas from becoming a radioactive ghost town.
	With its spreading overcast of tension and suspense, its shocking flashes of violence, its imaginative ploys and gambits, and its complex, subtly revealed, breathtaking plot, The Last Days of Las Vegas is a summer "beach-read" thriller you'll want take home . . . to enjoy again in the chill of winter.
