It's hard to make a
dishonest buck in Sin City, especially when a rogue FBI agent is gunning for your head. Flat broke and one step ahead of the law, Daniel Faust
flees Vegas and lands in Chicago, where a risky heist promises to fill
his pockets with cash.
There are the risks you can account for,
and then there are the risks you never see coming, the ones that leave
you blindsided and fighting to survive. Daniel is a stranger in a
strange land, out of his element and surrounded by corrupt sorcerers,
demons, and worse. Still, with a friend's soul hanging in the balance - not to mention a pile of stolen cash - giving up isn't an option.
Before he's done, Daniel will descend into the depths of Chicago's occult
netherworld, competing in an underground poker tournament where the
winner takes all... and with the infernal Court of Night-Blooming Flowers running the show, "winner takes all" has an entirely new meaning. The
Flowers haven't forgotten Daniel's past insults, and if they get their
way, he'll never leave the Windy City alive.
The series
Las Vegas. It's a city of big winners and bigger losers, where fortunes tumble with a roll of the dice. Under all the glitz and sleaze, though, there's another Vegas: a city infested by monsters in human skin, drenched in occult corruption. It's the kind of place where a dash of black magic and a gun could be the only thing standing between you and the gates of hell. The kind of place a man like Daniel Faust calls home.
Read full series description
Faust is nobody's hero. He's a card-carrying villain by trade, a thief and sorcerer just trying to make a dishonest buck in Sin City. He doesn't have to go looking for trouble, though: trouble finds him. Surviving by his wits, he does his best to save the day (if he absolutely has to), save his own skin (preferably), and beat the odds on his way to the next big score.
