I read this book through NetGalley. My thanks to the author and the publisher for making this book available.

Very original and engaging plot. The first half of the book really sucks you in and makes you want to know more.

The Vegas Flop is filled with successful characters. From police detective to real estate agent to bad guys the author, Kyle K. Wolfson makes each character worth the role. The action proceeds nicely and we find that all is not as it appears, which is good, I guess, as killings are prime in people's minds. I enjoyed the story and recommend it to others.
Thanks NetGalley for the ARC.

In the neon-lit heart of Las Vegas, where fortunes are won and lost, Kyle K. Wolfson deals us a hand of suspense, intrigue, and high-stakes danger in his novel, “The Vegas Flop.” With a backdrop as glittering as the Strip itself, this action-packed thriller invites readers to place their bets on a game where the stakes are life and death.

Summary and characters:
Meet Lucas Green, a specialist assassin with a unique talent: orchestrating deaths to appear as accidents. Crashed cars, overdoses, and road rage—these are the tricks up his sleeve. When cartel boss Carlos Guerra orders him to eliminate Grant Anderson, Lucas faces a seemingly straightforward task. But in the labyrinthine world of Las Vegas, nothing is ever simple.

Grant, the unsuspecting target, has just inherited a real estate business from his late Uncle Paul Sherman. Little does he know that Paul’s dealings with the local cartel run deep. As Grant grapples with a house piled high with trash and loneliness far from his family, he becomes entangled in a web of danger.

Enter Detective Tracy Cook, a newly minted Las Vegas detective. She senses the subtle ties between Paul Sherman and the cartels, even if no one else believes her. Her off-the-books investigation leads her straight to Grant and his mysterious neighbor, Lucas Green.

My review:
Wolfson masterfully weaves these characters’ lives together, creating a collision course of competing interests. As the clock ticks, the tension escalates. Who will emerge victorious—the detective, the real estate agent, the assassin, or the drug dealer? In a city where secrets are currency and alliances shift like desert sands, the answer remains uncertain.

The Vegas Flop is a rollercoaster ride through the underbelly of Sin City. Wolfson’s writing crackles with authenticity, and his characters leap off the page. The unconventional premise —a killer who stages accidents—adds a fresh twist to the thriller genre. As the plot unfolds, you’ll find yourself rooting for unlikely heroes and questioning allegiances.

This book was a fun ride from beginning to end. The pacing keeps you hooked, and the twists and turns will leave you breathless. Whether you’re a seasoned gambler or a first-time visitor to Vegas, this novel is a sure bet. Highly recommended for fans of suspense, mystery, and anyone who loves a good gamble.

In The Vegas Flop, the house doesn’t always win. Sometimes, it’s the players who hold all the aces. 🎲
