Delve into the criminal world with Mario Puzo, the acclaimed author of The Godfather. In Fools Die, we follow Merlyn, a young man with a turbulent past who becomes a successful novelist. Fame and fortune open the doors of New York and Hollywood, where he rubs shoulders with tycoons and celebrities, while his gambling addiction drags him to Las Vegas. There, he meets Cully Cross, a professional gambler who works for a powerful hotel owner. This new world alienates Merlyn from his family and loved ones, who are replaced by his new and dangerous acquaintances. A novel that explores the depths of ambition, power, and the contradictions of life.
