The Investment Club

De: Doug Cooper

Narrado por: Jack Nolan

Forty million people visit Vegas every year but most never get past the strip. What about the people who live there? What brought them there? What keeps them there?

Told from the perspective of a seasoned blackjack dealer, The Investment Club tells the stories of a self-destructive, dwarf entrepreneur, a drug-addicted musical performer-turned-stripper, a retired, widowed New Jersey policeman, a bereaved, divorced female sportscaster, and a card-counting, former Catholic priest before and after their fateful meeting at the El Cortez Casino in downtown Vegas.

As the five learn the greatest return comes from investing in one another, their lives stabilize and take on new, positive directions. But their love and support for each other can take them only so far before they must determine the meaning and value of their own lives.

great read!

I am an avid Audible listener, with a collection of over 200 books, and this is one of my favorites. The story follows five dynamic characters in Las Vegas. Although each character is very different, I found myself relating to specific aspects of each personality. I was sorry to see this story end. I hope to hear more from this author!
