Casino life, the knowledge of Las Vegas, and the curiosity about the people living in Las Vegas have mesmerized worldwide tourists for many years.

The stories are individually unique, captivating, and unbelievably surreal in the couple’s young lives beginning with their fun teenage days in the wild 1960s, to their vibrant wedding just before Ian went off to Vietnam, and throughout their tight-knit family life. Or was it so tight-knit?The stories within contain love, traumas, as well as possible lingering hidden triangles. All the mystery and excitement one would expect to take place in our nation’s “forbidden city.”
