    Las Vegas sells the illusion of reinvention—but what happens when the mirage fades? In this first episode of Dark Detours, I reflect on growing up in a city built on spectacle and the stories to come. From the forgotten to the infamous, Dark Detours explores the city's shadows from the lens of a native.
