Playing Solitaire is a Team Sport

Jack Bardlow's world is a puzzle of pain and desperation, a tangle of warring alliances and double-edged deals. His right side burns with a mysterious fire, yet for the first time in years, he sees clearly through both eyes—a clarity that might just be his undoing. Gunshots echo in his head, a brutal reminder that time is his most lethal adversary.

Entrusted with secrets buried deep in a deck of cards, Jack must tread the thin line between ally and enemy, piecing together a cryptic treasure map of unimaginable wealth. But trust is a rare commodity, and betrayal lurks in every shadow. Partners are essential, yet keeping his own heart hidden might be his only chance at freedom. Treachery, after all, is a game best played in layers.

In this gritty labyrinth of high stakes, where every card holds a life-altering secret, Jack must find his team—or forge his escape alone. For in the world of Solitaire, trust is just another gamble, and the ultimate prize demands more than just courage—it demands survival.
