Skim Deep by Max Allan Collins
The onetime world-class thief Nolan - now happily gone straight with his own restaurant nightclub - whisks his longtime lover Sherry off to Vegas for a trip to a wedding chapel and a honeymoon stay. But an eye-in-the-sky security cam at a casino spots Nolan, whose past catches up with him when he's thought to be casing the joint.
"This jaunty caper novel has a definite dark side—Nolan is no ersatz antihero—but Collins, as always, mixes blood and badinage with gusto" - Booklist
"The prolific Collins resurrects Nolan...for another adventure that will return him to the dark side...No doubt about it: It’s great to see Nolan back in action." - Kirkus ReviewsÂ
SKIM DEEP contains everything that aficionados of noir crime fiction love, including sex, violence, gunshots and double-crosses." - Bookreporter
