Used book – Fortune, Paul-Loup Sulitzer

Franz Cimballi, the hero of "Money" and "Cash!", this time wants to achieve Fortune, the real, the immense. As New Jersey has decided to legalize gambling in Atlantic City, Cimballi decides to establish "his" casino there: the White Elephant. But how do you bring a casino to life? How do you make it one of the largest on the planet, the most original? Where and how do you recruit the essential casino manager who will have almost life-or-death power over 25,000 employees? And, above all, how do you avoid the sometimes deadly traps of the most closed world? Cimballi takes the plunge and the results are not long in coming. He will be the victim of an incredible, cold, cynical scam. His counter-attack will be monumental, hilarious, fueled by tremendous suspense. The stakes: probably freedom, perhaps life... and certainly over one and a half billion dollars, Power, Fortune!
