The First Cut. The Solitaire Series, #1

Every game has rules. Solitaire decides who lives. Jack Bardlow was once a legend-until a failed hit left him scarred, hunted, and marked for death. Now he's a ghost in Las Vegas, surviving on instinct while a secret gambling syndicate closes in to erase him for good. Solitaire doesn't deal cards for luck. Every suit commands power, every draw seals a fate, and every debt is paid in blood. As enforcers, rivals, and federal agents collide, Jack discovers the cards he inherited hide more than money-they point to a conspiracy born in war and fed by greed.
Across smoky casinos and shadow wars, loyalties fracture and violence escalates. A rival syndicate watches from the dark, an undercover agent gambles with her soul, and Jack becomes the wildcard no one can predict. Gritty, cynical, and razor-sharp, *The First Cut* launches a neo-noir thriller where chance is a weapon and survival means learning the game beneath the game. Place your bet. Cut the deck.
