MY REVIEW
 This book blew me away . I couldn't put this book down. This is the true life story of Adnan Alisic.
A young man from Bosnia . Who has demons that he is trying to get away from. So he heads to Phoenix Arizona . He finds that gambling is his way of beating stress. But when he runs up a big gambling debt and gets chucked out of the casino. He goes and devises as plan to get back at the casino and at the same time pulling off the biggest casino heist.
  This is a very honest and raw true to life crime story. The author takes us from the streets of Bosnia to the casinos in Phoenix with such an honest and almost heart wrenching take on things. You have a boy from Bosnia that comes to America gets the American dream. But to loose it all at the casino. Well then you realize it there is an ocean eleven grand theft from the casino. Now don't tell me that doesn't get your motor running. Will they get caught or will they get away scot free.
You easily fall in love with the main character , you want to hug him, then there are times when you want to shake him to see if there are marbles in his head . That's what makes him so likeable .
 So if you are looking for a great book with some great raw emotion, with a true to life story line please check out this book . The emotions you will go through is unbelievable.  This would be a great gift to give the reader in your life. Check it out
