The finger and the brutal murder it reveals are more than a hoarding cat lady with a phantom husband can ignore. Helen’s a suspect, and she ends up in jail.

Download or read book Dream City written by Douglas Unger and published by University of Nevada Press. This book was released on 2024-10-08 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this unconventional tale of Las Vegas during the two delirious boom decades before the bust of the Great Recession, failed actor “C. D.” Reinhart, who has launched a new career in hotel marketing, is gradually losing his moral and existential compass. Working on The Strip during an era when Sin City’s population growth was outpacing any other place in America, C. D. climbs the industry ladder while modeling himself after a Pyramid Resorts top executive, Lance Sheperd. C. D.’s professional choices lead him down a tumultuous road, as Sheperd, a complex and, at times, visionary figure, pilots his ventures through the tangled wheeling and dealing of finance and corporate politics straight into catastrophe. As the story progresses, C. D. comes to understand how his personal losses and the losses of his cohort of hard driving executives on the make—especially the tragic life of his work partner, Greta Olsson, the only woman to break through into their male dominated world—are a result of the make-believe environment he has helped to create, a world where representation replaces reality. Hoping to piece together his faltering marriage and family relationships, C. D. must find a new path as he struggles to hold onto his dreams. In this fictionalized version of the city of glittering lights, author Douglas Unger pits the ideologies of marketing and consumerism in the casino economy of America against the erosion of individual and humane values that success in that world demands. Unger reveals the hard truth that Las Vegas, a blue-collar town considered by many to be “the most honest city,” can be a temple for self-deceptions, emblematic of a service economy that knows the price of everything and too often the value of little else. Dream City becomes both a love song and an elegy for Las Vegas that sets it apart from any other literary novel previously written about this global entertainment attraction that in so many ways represents postmodern America. Sooner or later, the challenge that faces everyone is to discover what matters most, and to learn how to bet on the better angels of our natures.

Jettisoning a life of East Coast privilege to become a PI/Bounty hunter in dangerous N. Las Vegas, she’s dedicated her life to fighting for the LGBTQ world. She takes down violent men and woman – in this case two violent butch females, sadists along the eco system of the private sex and fetish scene in Vegas. When an ex drug-addicted show girl’s young daughter goes missing, Jane must move into the depraved bowels of the Vegas underground, into BDSM and Goth sex clubs as she hunts her prey. There sex, lots of it, and violence too, among the private, dangerous and honest club scene. There’s death and, hopefully, laughter and a few tears along the way. If you’re looking for the usual watered down erotica, the Prince saves the princess kind of pabulum, well this novel is not for you – unless you might be interested in something NEW and unusual. I have been told my work is like a bath of acid, stripping reality to the bone. The first novel in a series of novels.
