I just finished reading the latest bestseller by Lee Child, Bad Luck and Trouble. This book has a few chapters set in Las Vegas. In these chapters, the main characters are walking up the low end of the Strip where several of the older properties have been torn down to make way for new construction (so far so good). But then the author states several times they're in the area where the Riviera used to be. I just got back from Vegas and I know the Riveria is still there. So this was obviously a researching error. I was wondering if these types of "errors" come to light in any way and do any formal retractions/apologies ever take place when the facts are incorrect.
