In the vast Nevada desert, there is a mysterious resort called The Black Fire Resort and Casino. But it is far more luxurious and exotic than anything in Las Vegas. Select people are invited here where they discover they can wager many different things other than money. Experiential bets can bring you anything your heart desires, love, power, beauty, and even resurrection from death.
Rafe Dillon, a rogue FBI Special Agent – Jordan Carroll, a mother and poker dealer – Orin Matthews, a gentle farmer – and Miguel Perez, a young soldier – all drawn to this enigmatic casino where their lives cross paths with amazing and sometimes horrific results that thrust them inexplicably through metaphysical realms and across time and space.
In this thrilling and ambitious work of science and horror fiction, Anthony Lawrence and Ethan Lawrence take the reader where few writers have ventured - into doomed love, supernatural betrayal, even heaven and hell itself as old as Scripture’s legends and as modern as today’s moral desires.
