Eddie's old friend, an employee of WagerEasy, has been murdered. The sports gambling market is on a knife's edge: the illegal black market bookies backed by the mob against the well-funded foreign invader. Eddie and his uncle, retired police detective Mike O'Connell with the right contacts, sets up a meeting with a Chicago gambling boss suspected of ordering the murder. The Chicago gambling boss claims he's being framed by WagerEasy, the new threat in town. Eddie decides to go undercover and secures a job at WagerEasy. With the assistance of industry insider Tara Reilly, Eddie discovers that ruthless factions within the mob are fighting to overthrow the old guard and upend WagerEasy's move into Chicago. Eddie finds enemies coming at him from all angles and must risk everything to get justice."--Back cover. 650 0 $a Sports betting $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $v Fiction. $9 263322 650 0 $a Mafia $z Chicago $z Chicago $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft $9 802168 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction) $2 lcgft $9 858642 941 $a 1 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909064504.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7B65FDE2300611EDA406B4E81FECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b KAYInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
