Listeners follow an exclusive group of audacious MIT math geniuses who legally took Las Vegas casinos for over three million dollars, in this true story that has been adapted by Sony Pictures for a feature film, starring Kevin Spacey and slated for release on March 21st. Unabridged. 8 CDs.

THE #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER -- NOW THE MAJOR MOTION PICTURE 21

The long-running New York Times bestseller that has become a cultural phenomenon, Bringing Down the House is an action-filled caper carried out by the unlikeliest of cons -- supersmart geeks. Gambling pervaded the M.I.T. campus, and genius kids with money and glittering futures were just as likely to be found in a Paradise Island casino as in the school library. A highly elite group of mathletes was recruited to join The Club, a small, secret blackjack organization dedicated to counting cards and beating the major casinos across the nation at their own game. As a successful ring of card savants, backed by a mysterious ringleader and shadowy investors, they infiltrated Vegas and won millions.

The Boston Herald acclaimed it as a suspenseful tale that portrays the players as Davids going up against Goliaths. Filled with tense action, high stakes, and incredibly close calls, Bringing Down the House is a nail-biting chronicle of a real-life Ocean's Eleven. It's one story that Vegas does not want you to know.

A lively tale that could pass for thriller fiction....More amazing because it really happened.
