The Fifth Ace

Fate deals cards none can escape-but with stakes this high one card has the power to condemn or absolve. A game meant to entertain soon reveals hidden tensions beneath the surface and every hand becomes a subtle struggle for dominance. Lies are dealt as readily as spades and diamonds and suspicion grows with each turn across the table. When the unexpected fifth ace appears the game is no longer play but deadly reality. Winning means survival; losing leaves everything-fortune reputation even life itself-in jeopardy. Only those willing to gamble with more than chance can hope to endure.
