The Only Game in Town — Gordon Donnell

John Congo is a troubled gambler fleeing a dark past. He risks his life's winnings to reach for respectability, only to discover that he has bought into a billion dollar corporate swindle on the suckers' side of the table. He is a small player and his opponents are pillars of the community, but life on the edge of the law has taught him to fight.

His tactics attract the police and the FBI and put him on a collision course with the woman he loves. People around him begin dying violently. But long odds and lethal consequences don't matter. He has everything on the table. For him, this is the only game in town.
