The Devil Card: Hidden Gotham, Book 3
VICIOUS. VINDICTIVE. VENGEFUL.
SOME SINS CAN’T BE FORGIVEN.
A catastrophic fire drags gay speakeasy owner Dash Parker into the treacherous underworld of Little Italy — where people are seduced and imprisoned by their own vices.
When his club’s doorman suffers a devastating loss, Dash must learn if the fire is connected to a sordid gambling den and the predatory family that runs it, or to a secret society that many hoped was long dead. Untangling a decade’s worth of lies between a terrified father, a wily widow, and an enigmatic spiritualist pushes him to the limit. And there’s still the crooked cop who’s chasing after the loose ends of a crime that Dash and his friends thought they’d buried.
