LostInThePages avatar reviewed From the Back Cover on + 35 more book reviews


When the President of the United States wants a million dollars in gold given secret passage downriver, even a gambler has to fold his hand. At least until bullion hungry buccaneers call his bluff with an old bayou battleship. Then count on Chance to give it back in spades!

As the muddy maze of the Mississippi Delta becomes a backwater battleground, Chance finds his paddlewheeler isn't the only "Wild Card" in this deadly game: a tropical hurricane is headed straight for the bayou, ready to cash in everyone's chips!

He's cool headed, hot blooded, and always in the winner's circle. He's Chance, a legend in his own time on the big river paddlewheels. Whether it's cards or women, he plays hard and wins big.
