Lords of Las Vegas tells a winding tale of two very different young men thrust together in the boiling cauldron that is Las Vegas politics, bound in ways that will eventually cause one of them to take his life. Along the way, the pair traverse the real Las Vegas in a way that few books or films have ever described, offering a rare view of a city where the rules are often very different.

"We are very pleased to bring this story to readers everywhere," said Carolyn Uber, president, Stephens Press. "We don't often publish fiction but with a work that is this authentic and compelling, we knew it was something we wanted to put into print. It is an engaging story of loyalty, integrity, redemption and more drawn on one of the most dazzling canvasses on the planet. And it's a very fast-paced and enjoyable read."

"Early reviews of the book have been strong," adds Uber. "Lords is getting praise from those who know Las Vegas and Las Vegas writing best. With the author's background as a political writer in Sin City, he knows of what he writes."

"Lords of Las Vegas starts with a bang and gets more intriguing by the page. In a place that attracts its share of drive-by literary shooters, author Kurt Divich is the real deal. He is a gifted young writer who knows the shadowy Las Vegas terrain as only a local can," said John L. Smith, columnist for The Las Vegas Review-Journal and author of numerous Vegas-themed titles.

Lord of Las Vegas is available as an eBook at major online retailers including Amazon.com, Apple iBookstore, and BN.com. The print edition will be on retailer's bookshelves shortly.
