Publisher's Synopsis
In New York Times bestselling author Robert Asprin and Jody Lynn Nye's newest Big Easy dragon tale, Griffen McCandles is about to give the forces of evil a run for their money.
Griffen already has his hands full running his gambling operation in New Orleans and dealing with his dragon heritage. Now his pregnant sister, Valerie, is missing-possibly kidnapped-and his uncle, Malcolm McCandles, has flown into town for a mysterious meeting with a powerful man who's been dead for almost eight decades.
And Griffen certainly hasn't got the time to protect Councilwoman Penny Dunbar, a dragon who's running for governor of Louisiana-if malign forces don't take her out first. Griffen learned a long time ago to play the hand fate has dealt him, but with many lives at stake-including Val's unborn dragon-he's hoping for an ace in the hole.
