Synopsis

To Dream... To Dare... To Win...

The ancient motto, inscribed in Latin on a mysterious golden medallion recovered from the ruins of the Roman Empire, has guided Michael Tiranno to heights few men have achieved. Once an orphaned farm boy in his native Sicily, Michael made millions by mastering the intricate world of high finance and is now the fabulously wealthy owner of Las Vegas's Seven Sins, the grandest and most extravagant casino in the world. The lavish resort embodies the personal philosophy fueled by his lust for power: the greater the risk, the greater the reward.

But he also has secrets—secrets that he and Naomi Burns, his driven corporate attorney and confidante, have gone to great lengths to bury. When an enemy from the past threatens to undermine everything he has built, his dark history must now be uncovered. Together, they must tear open painful scars in Michael's heart and soul to discover the true identity of their unknown foe—before all of Las Vegas pays the price for Michael Tiranno's realized dreams.

When I read The Seven Sins years ago I hoped Jon Land would bring Michael "The Tyrant" Tiranno back in another adventure. Now he has done just that with his new thriller, Black Scorpion. Tiranno saved Las Vegas from terrorists a few years ago, and now he is back to battle an evil organization of hum......more

Goodreads review by Laurie on February 26, 2012

The concept sounded really exciting, with much potential. Unfortunately, I found the writing poor (although the last couple of chapters was suddenly much better than the rest). I just couldn't get beyond inartful language like "his neck was broken; his head had been turned 180 degrees -- in the wrong......more

Goodreads review by Kym on August 18, 2009

Wow... I wish I had know that this was a FIRST in a series....it would explain so much! This was a tough start with TONS of background! finishes far too soon for me...seemed as if the author was told to cut pages. Now that I know there are more to come (?!) it makes more sense. But, on that note, autho......more

My first Jon Land read, and it was good. After working through the Vince Flynn novels, my sister gave me "The Seven Sins". Nothing like a globetrotting, casino owning, pose' leading mafia son to make a action adventure novel. If you like Flynn, Baldacci, Clancy or Dale Brown, you will find this book......more
