Crime & Suspense

“There’s a wildcard in every deck—and this one just got played.”

Charles “Pick” Pickard Jr. has always been the eccentric heir to a fortune he never earned. But when a man with a fake name, a fake tan, and real muscle shows up demanding a single playing card left to Pick by his dead father… things get complicated fast.

What follows is part fight, part farce, and part revelation—because Pick’s father wasn’t just a soldier. He was a smuggler, a strategist, and part of something so much bigger than a war.

Now Pick has the card. He has the code.

And, whether he’s ready or not, he’s in the game.
