Lucky Stiff — Robert Lee Beers

Someone is messing around with Luck. In a city with some of the largest underground gambling mobs in the world, Tony Mandolin, San Francisco's Private Eye to the odd and wonderful, finds himself neck-deep in Cartels, Triads, and Russians. Soon the world-weary, cynical PI winds up in a card game where the loser has to give up a whole lot more than just his chips. And now the Russians want their money back.
