Slutsåld



The old west comes alive in this modern day thriller.

Las Vegas may be a city of opulent casinos, lavish resorts, and adult entertainment, but the desert outside the city contain more bodies then are buried in the rest of the state's cemeteries. Two women, one, his best friends daughter, leading separate lives are taken just hours apart in broad daylight. One for money, one for fun. The FBI find "evidence" that a Native American has gone psychotic, reverting to 1860's practices of ritual killing. Trenton Russell is not so sure. An ex C I A agent with a unique gift, he sees instinctual "visions" in flashing numbers. But the FBI are skeptical, hindering his every move and threatening to arrest him for obstruction. His life was shattered once in the CIA when a mission went south and embedded in him a guilt that racks his every waking hour. Now unfolding events threaten to derail his sanity once again. Bringing back the nightmares and depression. He plays high stakes blackjack to ease the pain, but more often than not, the stakes are not money but human lives.
