Book excerpt: A secret mission to Lisbon. A murder at the casino. And a killer gambling on escape. New Year's Eve, 1935. The clink of champagne flutes mingles with the rattle of the roulette ball. Fina's on a winning streak. But just as she's about to celebrate, someone gasps, chokes, and slides to the floor. The Portuguese police treat it as a crime passionel, but Ruby and Fina have other ideas. Could the murder be linked to the high-level jewel-smuggling operation they've been asked to investigate? Working undercover, they scope out the other guests: a handsome airman, an icy princess, a genial mathematician, a suave croupier, and a Brazilian diva with flashy frocks and a personality to match. They all have something to hide - but the truth turns out to be far stranger than Fina could ever have dreamed. Join Ruby, Fina, Pixley, and Gayatri as they battle with profiteers, saboteurs, assassins, and a ghostly apparition on their twistiest and most captivating adventure yet!

What readers are saying: "The plot grabbed my attention right at the beginning and held it right to the end." "This series is like watching a 1930's mystery/comedy with the tongue in cheek comments and antics of the characters that just make you laugh out loud." "Great series and great writing!" "'Clue" has always been my favorite board game, and going on a murder mystery cruise is on my bucket list, so I was beyond thrilled at the opportunity to read this book, and I wasn't let down." "The plot had a lot of twists and turns that are necessary for a good mystery." "Vivid descriptions of locations and events make you feel as if you are part of the story. Strong women characters, political intrigue, and a murder mystery that keeps you guessing as to who the murderer is and the motive behind the murders." "If you love this genre this is a must read." Book 1: The Mystery of Ruby's Stiletto An invitation to an island off the coast of Italy. What could be more relaxing? Nothing. Until a murderer strikes. Autumn in Sardinia, 1935. Ruby and Fina find themselves in a world of glamour once again, this time on a private island owned by a famous Italian shoe designer. A riotous guest list of artists, flowing wine, passion and political intrigue guarantee a thrilling time for all. But it could be a little too thrilling unless Ruby and Fina find the murderer. Soon. Book 2: The Mystery of Ruby's Tracks Ready for a snowy ride aboard the Train Blanc? Murder and mayhem await. November, 1935. With its velvet sofas and bone china teacups, the Train Blanc is a haven of 1930s luxury. But for Ruby and Fina, the trip holds some shocking surprises - not least that one of their fellow passengers is a murderer ... As the famous train steams through the cold Alpine night, the detective pair must work out which of the travellers is not what they seem. Could it be the friendly Swiss priest? The glamorous erotica author? The 'artistic' dilettante? Or even the grandmother with the hideous knitting? Ruby and Fina are at the top of their game in this witty, sophisticated tale, which weaves together politics, fashion, intrigue and romance in a mystery with more twists and turns than a train track through the Alps. Book 3: The Mystery of Ruby's Mistletoe Snowbound at Christmas. Very cosy. Until a murderer and a thief appear. December, 1935. Ruby and Fina are anticipating a quiet Christmas. But the snowy peace of Quenby College is shattered when the police come looking for Ruby. She and Fina escape to a relative's plush country home -- only to find that Aunt Millie has a few surprises in store ... As the mercury drops, Ruby and Fina are drawn into a web of false identities and half-truths. Why did someone spike the cocktails during the after-dinner jazz? Who stole Aunt Millie's priceless hatpin collection? Could it be a coincidence that all the house guests were also present on the day when Fina's father was murdered? With the police on their tail, and a killer on the loose, the two dressmaking sleuths have to use all their considerable wits to solve Fina's family tragedy - and bring a little joy back to Christmas.

Download or read book Tales from the Pit written by David G. Schwartz and published by Gambling Studies. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dealing in a casino presents challenges and rewards not seen in many workplaces. With hundreds of thousands of dollars at stake every minute, table games pits are high-stress workplaces. Managing a workforce of dealers and attending to the needs of players brings stresses of its own. In 2015, the University of Nevada, Las Vegas's Center for Gaming Research received a grant from the UNLV University Libraries Advisory Board that enabled it to undertake an oral history project intended to capture the stories of table games managers, including both those currently working in the field and those who have retired. Drawn from these interviews, Tales from the Pit provides an overview of how the interviewees felt about a variety of topics, ranging from their experiences breaking in as new dealers to their transitions to management and the changes the industry has seen over their careers. The current and former managers speak candidly about the owners, bosses, dealers, and players who made each day challenging. This book illuminates the past several decades of casino history through the words of those who lived and made it.
