What about the people who live there? What brought them there? What keeps them there?Told from the perspective of a seasoned blackjack dealer, The Investment Club tells the stories of a self-destructive, dwarf entrepreneur, a drug-addicted musical performer-turned-stripper, a retired, widowed New Jersey policeman, a bereaved, divorced female sportscaster, and a card-counting, former Catholic priest before and after their fateful meeting at the El Cortez Casino in downtown Vegas. As the five learn the greatest return comes from investing in one another, their lives stabilize and take on new, positive directions.

But their love and support for each other can take them only so far before they must determine the meaning and value of their own lives.
