The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo - Charles De Ville Wells, Gambler and Fraudster Extraordinaire

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

''Brilliant – a terrific read'' - Michael Aspel OBE

''The best book I’ve read all year'' - Nigel Jones, editor, Devonshire Magazine

Charles Deville Wells broke the bank at Monte Carlo – not once but ten times – winning the equivalent of millions in today’s money. He followed up with a colossal bank fraud in Paris, and became Europe’s 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?
