Magic is a world full of con artists. A realm of illusions and a mansion full of lies built upon the bones of deceit and deception. Magic makes the most of people and the least of their money.

Con artist, grifter and stage magician John Dodge lives by three simple rules: Never give a sucker an even break; Never con a con man; and above all, Know Your Limits.

But his life, his rules, and maybe his sanity are turned upside down when magic -- real magic -- starts seeping into the world. Because Dodge is one of the few who instinctively know how to use it.

But you could hardly call his new abilities a gift -- not when they make Dodge the target of far more powerful magical forces. And when even his own deck of cards turns against him, he has to face the fact that he's not running the con anymore, and the game he's playing is as deadly as they come.

Bright city night lights and a game as deadly as they come? Sounds like Russian roulette no? Pick a red, get ahead; pick a black, set you back. Click that round, set you down.

Or what of cards that turn against you? Credit not up to scratch? Forgot your PIN one too many times? Who knows with magic.
