Quotes Simon Templar: For the pampered rich, who will come to Monte Carlo, the urge is not only to get richer, but to test their nerve against that remorseless adversary, luck. Now, in this room, the kings of the chemin de fer meet head on. Like ex-king Fallouda of Fedyra. Millions of francs can change hands in a single night.
