Few people know the anguish of keeping secrets
For a CIA officer, keeping secrets is a way of life, not an option, but Trenton Russell is a man who thrives on finding the truth. In the meaning of life, relationships, world affairs, and his own guilt-ridden past. And for a man obsessed with finding truth, lying for a living is particularly painful, he quits the CIA to be a journalist, revealing secrets, not being a part of them. He plays high-stakes blackjack to ease his guilt and sometimes a magical connection happens with a deck of cards. That flashing numbers reveal clues to the mysteries he’s grappling with. Visions from the universe and more often than not, the stakes are not money but human lives.
In the first book of the Trenton Russell series, someone is killing blonde blackjack dealers in Las Vegas. Three women so far have been killed in horrific rituals resembling an Indian massacre of the 1860’s. When the daughter of his best friend is taken, Trenton immediately fly’s to Vegas to find her. He soon discovers that all is not what it seems. That he has stepped into a web of lies and deceit that rivals anything the CIA ever threw him into. At the heart of the web seems to be a fisty stripper whose audacious sexuality reawakens his desire for love, but at what cost? Dangerous is one thing. Deadly is another.
