Sometimes what happens in Vegas stays with you

Las Vegas, 1945. Reeling from her husband’s death, Thelma Miles sets out to tear down a mafia empire. As federal agents circle, rival gangs plot, and her father’s empire grows more powerful by the day, Thelma masterminds an elaborate ruse.

To pull off the con, she assembles an unlikely crew: a Hollywood starlet who is more than she appears; a relentless reporter on a crusade to root out corruption, and her former boss who may or may not be undermining the whole operation.

From smoke-filled backrooms to glittering casino floors, L.L. Kirchner's Vegas Girls is a razor-sharp, meticulously-researched historical thriller with plot twists you won't see coming.

Vegas Girls is the suspenseful second book in The Queenpin Chronicles historical fiction series but works as a standalone. If you love the immersive worlds of Beatriz Williams, the complex heroines of Kate Quinn, and crave the intrigue of Hillary Mantel, then you'll love Kirchner's dark exploration of almost-postwar Sin City. Banger ending!

Secrets and suspense keep you on the edge of your seat in this drama about power, revenge, and the price we pay for reinvention. Buy Vegas Girls to gamble on grit today.
