Cover Reveal: Deadly Gamble by Shirley Kennedy
Synopsis
When
attractive Kristi Andrews is hired as Assistant Marketing Director at the
Parthenon hotel/casino in Las Vegas, she’s focused on succeeding at her new
job. But from the very first day, strange events occur: a deadly escalator accident—the strange death
of a candle shop owner—a psychic’s warning that the Parthenon is doomed AND
IT’S ALL KRISTI’S FAULT.
Shocked
and baffled, Kristi must determine if
she could be responsible for the mysterious, evil presence that seems to haunt
the hotel. She’s aided by a man she’s just met—famous western historical author,
Mike Garvey. Attracted to Kristi, Mike goes one hundred fifty years back in
time to draw upon his knowledge of old Las Vegas and the Santa Fe Trail. They
are the key to a puzzling mystery which Kristi must solve if she wants to save
not only the Parthenon but the entire Las Vegas Strip from total disaster.

Houston; Torrance, California; Bogota ,Colombia; and Calgary, Alberta, Canada
where she received a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Sciences at the

computer programmer/systems analyst for several years before she went back to
her first love, writing.

close to her two daughters in Las Vegas Nevada. Brutus and Sparky, her two

computer while she produces her next novel.
