Mesquite : 9781453716717

Molded from the bowels of the high desert, Mesquite, Nevada boasts four casinos where visitors can dodge the heat, drop a dollar and ruin their morals. Ben Tolken should have blasted through this town exceeding the speed limit. His vehicle is rendered useless and strands him at the Thousand Pines Hotel and Casino. With no options, Ben tries to spend his time bowling and drinking. Stacy Mooney wanders into his life and convinces him she is a better bang for his buck. Their fling is short-lived when they stumble upon a drug deal perpetrated by wannabe thug Beau Hitchens and his gang of dimwitted lackeys. Ben and Stacy opt for flight instead of fight and the two head for safety on the packed casino floor with Beau in close pursuit. The stakes are raised as Stacy's autistic brother is thrown into the mix and the local drug lord transforms a simple night of booze, babes and bling into a modern Western of bang, bang, you're dead.
