Description
A gambling craze is sweeping nineteenth-century St. Petersburg, yet a dashing Russian army captain is too impoverished to participate. But when he learns that an aging countess may hold the ultimate key to gambling riches, the desperate young officer will stop at nothing to steal the sinister secret for himself. When fortunes are won and lost with the turn of a card, will one man wager his very soul on a final twist of fate?
