Editorial Reviews
From the Publisher
An odd, crooked card game sets two star-crossed lovers on an epic cross-country journey to regain the lost money and set things right. Now fate has handed Nick Paul an old wear-worn journal. A journal full of myths, clues, riddles.

But time was running out before all would be lost....

Peter Torbay's new novel traces the tale of a returning Viet Nam war veteran, caught up in an elaborate con game and a failed deal, who's forced by fate to travel to the ends of the earth in search of salvation, and a reunion with his dreams. Told through an InterNet Age narrator who discovers the protagonist's journal, and then moving between past and present, the surprise ending is sublime.
