You're Nobody 'Til Somebody Kills You

Robert J. Randisi delivers the best entry yet in this evocative, fast-paced series.

This time, it's not really a Rat Pack member who needs help from Eddie G., pit boss at the Sands Casino and friend of the Rat Pack, but an extended member-Marilyn Monroe. Still smarting from being blamed for Clark Gable's death after the filming of The Misfits, Marilyn thinks she's being followed. Eddie's on the job, but must take a break when he receives word that his mother has died. He flies back home to Brooklyn for the first time in fourteen years, with his buddy P.l. Danny Bardini looking after Marilyn while he's gone. When Eddie hears that Danny has gone missing, he returns to Vegas with Jerry, the Brooklyn tough guy, and the two investigate Marilyn's concerns more seriously.

With stops at both Marilyn's home and Frank Sinatra's house in Palm Springs, where Frank is preparing to receive President JFK, this is another thrilling, fun-filled ride through the glittering world of the Rat Pack.
