Publisher's Synopsis
A gambler and a dueller, Charles de Montfort seems to be a chosen one. Unusual fortune with the cards, as well as with the ladies and the pistols, abounds. It's as though Satan himself watches over Charles. Could that be his secret? Does he have the luck of the devil with him? A hidden doorway and an old family pact haunt his life, even after his marriage to Rachelle de Leay. Can he keep his secrets hidden long enough for her to provide what is needed, what is demanded of him by his master?
