Some people enter your life quietly.
Others arrive with enough unbelievable stories to fill a book.
George Sommer was one of those people.
It began with an ordinary friendship in Las Vegas-casinos, poker, questionable decisions, and an old man with stories about prison, crime, gold, love and people you probably wouldn't invite to Sunday lunch.
There was just one problem.
Nobody believed him.
His friend laughed, questioned him, and sometimes wondered if George had completely lost the plot.
Then, during the final months of George's life, the stories started again-and this time, they were written down.
After his death, curiosity took over. Names were checked. Places were searched. Old events were investigated.
And slowly, an uncomfortable possibility emerged:
George might have been telling the truth.
This isn't a history lesson or a guide to sensible life choices.
It's a journey through friendship, Las Vegas, casinos, prison, crime, love, loss and some decisions that seemed like a good idea at the time.
Some stories were witnessed.
Some were investigated.
Some remain almost impossible to believe.
But George isn't here anymore to explain himself.
So open the book, have a laugh, raise an eyebrow-and decide for yourself:
Who the hell was George Sommer?
