Overview
Overview
In 1888 in Victoria, Texas, for a simple job, a Chicago private eye gets caught up in the poker game to end all poker games.
In 1888 Shannon, a Chicago private detective, goes home to Texas for a wedding and is asked by Galveston's new rabbi to locate swindlers, claiming to be seeking money for a future colony of Romanian Jewish refugees, and a man named Silverberg who has disappeared in Texas along with them.
Though this appears to be a simple missing person/ land swindle job, Shannon quickly finds himself in stranger territory. His investigations lead him toward a demonic white-haired gambler, monstrous sand dune totems, and a group of skull-headed poker players trapped in an endless loop of cards and alcohol, who may be his only means to survive the business.
