In Their Own Words

An incident with consequences for the so-called "integrity of game" as profound as the "Black Sox" scandal and more profound than Pete Rose betting on baseball is backdrop for The Oddsmakers, a novel that gives new meaning to the proverbial once-in-a-lifetime dream. This dream appears as a box score from a game yet to be played. Oddsmakers traverse Las Vegas to the crossroads of sports and gambling from where they must forge a path to the rainbow's end. But Las Vegas is on the verge of a disappearing act worthy of Siegfried and Roy. The corporate takeover of the City and the information age raise the odds against them. Their demons threaten to turn the dream into a nightmare. Can the oddsmakers overcome and become oddsbreakers? Will their odyssey have consequences for the "integrity of the game?"
