By (author): Robin Quinn

THE INCREDIBLE TRUE STORY OF THE MAN WHO BROKE THE BANK AT MONTE CARLO.

'Brilliant a terrific read' - Michael Aspel OBE

Charles Deville Wells broke the bank at Monte Carlo not once but ten times winning the equivalent of millions in todays money. He followed up with a colossal bank fraud in Paris, and became Europes most wanted criminal, hunted by British and French police and known in the press as Monte Carlo Wells the man with 36 aliases.

Is he phenomenally lucky? Has he really invented an infallible gambling system, as he claims? Or is he just an exceptionally clever fraudster?
