Cliff Hardy is flattered to be offered the job as head of security at the new Sydney casion. But the thought of office hours and wearing a suit put him off and he refuses in favour of his friend, Scot Galvani. When Galvani is murdered and the police are indifferent and the widow pleads with Hardy to help, how can he refuse? In the course of his investigation he takes the job at the casino, meets the attractive but unpredictable Vita Drewe and adds to his list of enemies. Galvani's killers are closer to home than Hardy anticipated; his life is on the line and so is his relationship with Glen Withers.

Called to an out-of-control crime scene--located outside Las Vegas in the legendary town of Boot Hill--forensic investigators Gil Grissom, Catherine Willows, Nick Stokes, and Sara Sidle quickly discover that the two casino shootout victims were no innocent bystanders.

Elmore Leonard - Tishomingo Blues
"Dennis
Lenahan the high diver would tell people that if you put a fifty-cent
piece on the floor and looked down at it, that's what the tank looked
like from the top of that eighty-foot steel ladder."
Things
are going along okay with Dennis' gig at the Tishomingo Lodge &
Casino in Tunica, Mississippi, "the Casino Capital of the South," until
the day he looks down from the high-dive platform and witnesses a mob
hit -- Dixie style.
