Synopsis: To save a friend&’s daughter from a bad marriage, Joe Crow confronts cultists, carnies, and cocaine wackosPoker-playing ex-cop Joe Crow has been dealt some rotten hands in his life, but he&’s survived them all. When Axel Speeter starts begging for help, Crow suspects his luck is about to run out. A taco-dealing former poker pro, Speeter&’s worried about his girlfriend&’s daughter Carmen. She&’s the sexiest trouble magnet the state of Omaha has ever seen, and she&’s about to drag Crow down with her. Carmen has just gotten engaged to Hyatt Hilton, a onetime drug pusher who&’s currently scratching out a living selling bootlegged Evian. Speeter wants Crow to make sure he&’s staying on the straight-and-narrow. And it looks like Hilton&’s involved in something much more dangerous than designer water. He&’s about to cross the Amaranthine Church of the One—a New Age cult convinced that it&’s found the secret to immortality, and doesn&’t mind killing to prove it.
