Las Vegas - a city forever cloaked in glamour, secrets, and sin. The bright lights beckon dreamers and vagabonds alike, promising fame, fortune, and fantasy. But beneath the neon glow pulses an underworld where ambition and avarice collide.
Daniel "Dice" Rivers learned those dark truths young while surviving Detroit's gritty streets. His skill with cards and reading people soon attracted the attention of powerful mobsters seeking to expand their empire to the Vegas Strip during its 1970s heyday.
For Dice, running the luxurious Mirage Heights Casino represented a chance to move up and secure a slice of Vegas decadence for himself. With his childhood friend Vinnie Marino overseeing security, Dice anticipates an easy path to success.
But Sin City's allure hides thorns. Mysterious hustler Isabella "Izzy" Moretti catches Dice's eye and refuses to be tamed even by marriage. Vinnie's volatile tendencies surface, causing tensions with Dice and the Detroit bosses financing their glittering venture.
Soon Dice is embroiled in betrayals, violence, and vice as he tries maintaining control over the Mirage Heights against long odds. But his ambitions blind him to what matters most until he has lost it all.
Exiled and hunted by both mobsters and the law, Dice wanders destitute and anonymous. His only path to survive is acknowledging the sins of his past and making amends before time runs out. Redemption seems beyond reach for those who have fallen so far.
Yet even in darkness, hope persists. This is the story of one man's arduous road to absolution and hard-won peace. For some lost souls, home remains waiting if they persevere. Las Vegas casts long shadows - but none are so deep light cannot pierce them in the end.
