Queenpin: A Novel

By the author of Dare Me and The End of Everything

A young woman hired to keep the books at a down-at-the-heels nightclub is taken under the wing of the infamous Gloria Denton, a mob luminary who reigned during the Golden Era of Bugsy Siegel and Lucky Luciano. Notoriously cunning and ruthless, Gloria shows her eager young protÃ©gÃ©e the ropes, ushering her into a glittering demimonde of late-night casinos, racetracks, betting parlors, inside heists, and big, big money. Suddenly, the world is at her feetâ€”as long as she doesn't take any chances, like falling for the wrong guy. As the roulette wheel turns, both mentor and protÃ©gÃ©e scramble to stay one step ahead of their bosses and each other.
