Description
In the neon-drenched underbelly of Las Vegas, Scott Crane, a man haunted by loss and the legacy of a powerful gambler father, finds himself drawn into a dangerous world where fortunes are wagered not in money, but in eternal life. This urban fantasy plunges readers into a high-stakes game where the archetypal magic of Tarot cards and the thrill of poker are intertwined with ancient quests for immortality. As Scott navigates this treacherous landscape, he must confront the shadowy forces that control the city's fate and uncover the secrets of his own past. Tim Powers masterfully blends the mundane with the magical, creating a thrilling narrative of destiny, consequence, and the ultimate gamble.
