Deadly Odds

In this "first rate thriller," a young hacker goes to Vegas to get lucky—and instead gets caught up in a terrorist plot with life and death stakes (Phillip Margolin).

At twenty-three years old, Seattle-based computer genius Arnold Gold devised a program capable of predicting the outcome of almost any event. While his success in sports betting hasn't improved his odds with women, he's in Las Vegas to get lucky in more ways than one. But when the wrong people learn of his valuable talents, Gold finds himself thrust into a deadly game of international intrigue.

Now the FBI, local police, and dangerous radicals are on his tail, and his only chance to save himself is to find the location of a massively devastating bomb hidden somewhere in Sin City . . .

"With Allen Wyler, you get thrills and a dash of humor combined in a high-tech plot written by a guy who knows what he's talking about." —Mike Lawson, award-winning author of the Joe DeMarco series
