About this product

Product Information

One of Elle 's Best and Most Anticipated Mysteries of 2024 * THE PRINCESS IS FAKE. THE MURDERS ARE REAL * From the New York Times bestselling author of The Flight Attendant and The Lioness, a Princess Diana impersonator and her estranged sister find themselves drawn into a dangerous game of money and murder in this twisting tale of organized crime, cryptocurrency, and family secrets on the Las Vegas strip. Crissy Dowling has created a world that suits her perfectly. She passes her days by the pool in a private cabana, she splurges on ice cream but never gains an ounce, and each evening she transforms into a Princess, performing her musical cabaret inspired by the life of the late Diana Spencer. Some might find her strange or even delusional, an American speaking with a British accent, hair feathered into a style thirty years old, living and working in a casino that has become a dated trash heap. On top of that, Crissy's daily diet of Adderall and Valium leaves her more than a little tipsy, her Senator boyfriend has gone back to his wife, and her entire career rests on resembling a dead woman. And yet, fans see her for the gifted chameleon she is, showering her with gifts, letters, and standing ovations night after night. But when Crissy's sister, Betsy, arrives in town with a new boyfriend and a teenage daughter, and when Richie Morley, the owner of the Buckingham Palace Casino, is savagely murdered, Crissy's carefully constructed kingdom comes crashing down all around her. A riveting tale of identity, obsession, fintech, and high-tech mobsters, The Princess of Las Vegas is an addictive, wildly original thriller from one of our most extraordinary storytellers.

Reviews
"Bohjalian''s latest is a fusion of contemporary malaise and eager nostalgia--not unlike Sin City itself." -- Lauren Puckett-Pope, Elle "Chris Bohjalian has a type. His recent thrillers are about glamorous, imperiled women who may not be trustworthy but whose senses of humor makes us like them anyway...[He] writes with verve and humor, and his depiction of a seedy, past-its prime casino feels just right...Keeps us guessing until the end." --Chris Hewitt, Minneapolis Star-Tribune "Subsisting on Adderall and Valium, a slim, beautiful Princess Diana impersonator makes a good living in Vegas until the day her estranged sister shows up, setting in motion a thriller that involves organized crime, unscrupulous cryptocurrency bros and shady politicians." --New York Times "This literary thriller...is about many things, including cryptocurrency, organized crime and family secrets....Bohjalian''s books [are] juicy but literary at the same time. They''re so smart but feel like candy." -- WBEZ Chicago, "A Nerdette Pick for 2024" "A twisting double helix of a mystery...The Princess of Las Vegas is two stories. One is a willies-inducing murder mystery...the other is about the folly of keeping secrets and holding grudges. Both are tight, captivating tales that balance and support each other as they unfold." -- Jordan Adams, Seven Days "A wonderful book....I absolutely could not put it down." --Anne Lamott, New York Times best-selling author of Bird by Bird "The perfect balance of sophisticated characterization and wild, rollicking plot." -- CrimeReads "A thrilling symphony of royal impersonators, teenage hackers and run-down casinos with multiple mysteries at its core. . . Bohjalian is no stranger to quirky folks in increasingly twisted situations. . . [and in Crissy and Betsy he] has created two distinctively fascinating narrators. . . The Princess of Las Vegas will leave the reader with both a yearning for Sin city excitement and a deep sigh of relief at being exactly where they are." -- BookPage, starred "Entertaining...The untimely deaths keep coming...Bohjalian is very good at capturing both the dark underside of Las Vegas and the weird surface on which fake Arethas, Sinatras, and Michael Jacksons cavort. Diana goes Vegas...in Bohjalian''s latest lively romp." -- Kirkus "Bohjalian''s lightning-speed page-turner delivers a dishy, twisty tale of suspense tempered with intriguing insights into the nature of ego, fame, and family. . . Bohjalian offers a full deck of irresistible elements in this novel of endangered Vegas royalty." --Carol Haggas, Booklist "[A] well-calibrated satire of cryptocurrency culture. . .[and] a blazing, Tarantino-esque climax." --Publishers Weekly "Crissy makes a living as a Princess Diana impersonator in Las Vegas, a glamorous one-woman act that masks the more unsavory aspects of her life. But when her boss at the Buckingham Palace Casino is murdered, Crissy finds herself in very real danger. Appealing both to readers obsessed with the British royals and to fans of mysteries and thrillers." -- BookBub "For fans of estranged sisters, obsession, and organized crime! Crissy Dowling is living a strange and downward spiraling life: she has a one-woman show in Las Vegas playing Diana Spencer. While the fans may adore her, her addiction and life-blurring identity aren''t the healthiest. It''s only about to get worse when one of the owners of the casino is murdered, her estranged sister shows up with a boyfriend and teenage kid, her boyfriend--a separated-from-his-wife Senator-- goes back to his wife, and she''s asked by the other casino owner to do a dangerous favor." --Jamie Canaves, BookRiot, "Bohjalian's latest is a fusion of contemporary malaise and eager nostalgia--not unlike Sin City itself." -- Lauren Puckett-Pope, Elle "Chris Bohjalian has a type.
