Fakta

In this "compelling" account, an investigative reporter "skillfully leads readers through a homicide investigation that reveals a surprise suspect" (Brian Ross, Chief Investigative Reporter, Law & Crime Network, former correspondent at NBC News, former investigative reporter at ABC News and author of The Madoff Chronicles).

Jeff German, a veteran Las Vegas Review-Journal investigative reporter, was no stranger to controversy or the danger of his work. For more than four decades, he wrote stories relentlessly confronting the mob, corrupt politicians, and greedy bureaucrats. As a result, he was often threatened—enough that he and his friend and fellow investigative reporter, Arthur Kane, sometimes joked about reporting on these threats if they were ever acted upon.

Then German received a tip about abuses at a little-known county office. His subsequent investigation unearthed a scandalous, sexually incriminating video of a rising politician, Robert Telles. The resulting stories in the Review-Journal ended Telles's political aspirations.

Less than six months later, on September 3, German's lifeless body was discovered outside his home with multiple stab wounds. His dedicated newsroom colleagues, including Kane, vowed to find the killer. In doing so, they exposed the true depths of corruption and malice in Sin City.

In The Last Story Kane delivers an intense narrative of courage, betrayal, and the unrelenting quest for justice.

"The Last Story paints a larger picture through its exploration of Las Vegas' underbelly, the exploration of the state of contemporary journalism and the struggle to continue doing the kind of hard-hitting investigating work to which German and Kane devoted their careers." —The Denver Post

"It's a great book about a horrifying case . . . especially tragic." —New York Times bestselling author Burl Barer, host of the True Crime Uncensored podcast.
