DENNIS N. GRIFFIN
|
Dennis N. Griffin retired in 1994
after a twenty-year career in
investigations and law enforcement
in New York State, and moved to Las
Vegas, Nevada later that year. In
1996 he wrote his first novel,
The Morgue, based on an actual
case he investigated. He currently
has six mystery/thriller books in
print.
In
2002, Dennis turned his attention to
non-fiction. Policing Las Vegas
(Huntington Press, April 2005)
follows the evolution of law
enforcement in Las Vegas and Clark
County from 1905 thru 2005. That
successful debut was followed by
The Battle for Las Vegas – The Law
vs the Mob (Huntington Press,
April 2006). |
This
latest book tells the inside story of
Chicago Outfit enforcer Tony Spilotro’s
reign in Vegas, and the war law enforcement
waged to remove him. The Hollywood version
of that era was reflected in the 1995 movie
Casino, in which actor Joe Pesci
played a character based on Spilotro.
Mr. Griffin is an active member of the
Henderson Writers Group, Wizards Of Words,
and the Public Safety Writers Association.
