The Digger's Game
Higgins, George VA riveting George V. Higgins masterpiece about Jerry Doherty and his trip to Vegas that puts him eighteen grand in the hole.
Jerry
"Digger" Doherty is an ex-con and proprietor of a workingman's Boston
bar, who supplements his income with the occasional "odd job," like
stealing live checks or picking up hot goods. His brother's a priest,
his wife's a nag, and he has a deadly appetite for martinis and
gambling. On a trip to Vegas, the Digger finds himself in the sights of a
loan shark known as “the Greek.” Luckily--if you call it luck--the
Digger has been let in on a little job that can turn his gambling debt
into a profit, if only he can pull it off without getting
himself killed
