Vegas Concierge is the culmination of a decade-long investigation linking sex trafficking, police corruption, and hip-hop music in Sin City. A layered saga, Vegas Concierge spans more than a decade and includes world-famous stars, violent "gorilla" pimps, crooked and honest cops, struggling journalists, ambitious FBI agents, influential casino executives, and high-profile political figures. It tells the inside story of this failed investigation and its countless twists, moving from the luxury hotel rooms of the Las Vegas Strip to the inner offices of the Las Vegas police, to the newsrooms of some of Nevada's biggest news organizations. Using confidential records available to no one else as well as exclusive, first-person accounts from primary sources, this book shows how prostitutes and pimps ply their trade, how police departments and the FBI trip on themselves and become hopelessly compromised, and how self-interest corrupts news organizations and the corridors of power. More than anything, this book examines the disregard American society has towards sex trafficking victims. Vegas Concierge ties together intersecting worlds via a diverse array of characters who played roles in this sordid tale about police corruption and incompetence, the price of celebrity, and the culture of Sin City.

Industry Reviews

Vegas Concierge is a deep dive into the American heart of darkness, a much needed outing of a society that allows its most vulnerable to be trampled by unchecked desire and greed. Brian Joseph has done a remarkable and undaunted job of investigative journalism. --Michael Connelly, #1 New York Times bestselling author and executive producer and writer of Bosch, Amazon Prime Video drama
