21 : Bringing Down The House


Con artists come in all shapes and forms. In this New York Times bestseller, it's brainy nerds. In this true story, six MIT math whizzes are recruitted and trained by a secret organisation in the early 1990s to take on major casinos and beat them at their own game by way of a card counting system at blackjack. Told from the viewpoint of Kevin Lewis, one of the group's big players, they infiltrate Vegas and soon see the money rolling in by the millions. But what goes up must come down. A few years later, cracks appear in the team, along with threats from a rival team.
