“They said the house always wins—until he learned the art of the game.”
Chuckie Hamm was a nobody—trapped in a dead-end job, suffocating under the weight of an ordinary life. Then, a chance encounter with the charismatic Greg Gatsby pulls him into the world of high-stakes blackjack, where skill and strategy can turn the tables on the casinos. Reinventing himself as Charlie Cunningham, a fearless high roller, Charlie joins an elite card-counting team set on taking millions from Vegas’s newest and most extravagant casino—the Lussuria.
But the deeper he plays, the more he realizes the game isn’t just about the cards—it’s about identity, deception, and the price of chasing more. His partner, the unpredictable and brilliant Tori, has already found her escape: a life by the ocean, free from the grind. As the team’s biggest play unfolds, Charlie must face the ultimate gamble—not just with the house, but with his own future.
Because in this game, it’s not just about winning or losing. It’s about knowing when to walk away.
High Stakes – The Art of the Game is a pulse-pounding, high-risk thriller that blends the adrenaline of Bringing Down the House with the existential reckoning of Fight Club. If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to beat the system—or if the system is even worth beating—this book will keep you hooked until the last hand.
