Summary of Vatican City, Las Vegas
In the last night of time, in a Vagas casino fashioned after the Vatican, author Thomas Carlyle is as good as dead. Swilling a mortal dose of alcohol, he will perish among the grotesque patrons of Vatican City, Las Vagas as they pursue an elusive jackpot token call "The Godhead." While he slowly expires, he finds himself embroiled in criminal intrigue as the Jones corporate family and the Medici mafia family struggle for control of Vatican City. The romantic subplot follows a strange, surreal love triangle between the moribund Carlyle, a desperately passionate French midget mime, and a cocktail waitress nun whom Carlyle mistakes for the Virgin Mary. As the night deepens and the forces of Vegas evil threaten to rob human existence of all significance, Carlyle dreams a final reckoning to bring Vatican City's management to justice.General Books
