Circle of greed is a story set in Australia of the perfect casino robbery executed by three professional thieves that quickly turns into a major disaster because of the greed of the participants, the story moves through various plots and counter plots. The idea for this story came to me while playing roulette in a casino, every now and again a casino employee came to the table with two guards and took away the money the punters had exchanged for chips. The croupier pushed the money through a slot in the table top and the cash fell into a box below the table. I sat and had a coffee and watched the same procedure from all the other gaming tables, the money went from the table into a box and was wheeled away, no-one counted it, no receipts were given, so I began to wonder how much difference would there be between the amount collected and the amount declared as taxable and that's how this story grew, from little acorns, etcetera.
