Book Details

"Poker World" plunges the reader deep into the card clubs and casinos of 1995 Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Biloxi. Someone is murdering and mutilating young women, but the serial killer doesn't work alone. A struggling poker pro is caught in the middle of it, lured by the promise of an unlimited bankroll. Will his addiction to the poker life destroy his sense of morality? Will the gorgeous card dealer he claims to love find a way to save him? No novel or movie has ever captured the essence of this dark world of gambling, loan sharking and violence so completely. It's a sure bet you won't be able to put "Poker World" down.
