NEWPORT, KY, 1955. SIN CITY.
Where the dice keep rolling, the bourbon keeps flowing, and the city lives up to its name.
Think Vegas with a meaner grin and deeper scars.
Jack McKenzie thought he knew Newport’s hustles and cons inside and out. A street-smart bootlegger with a family bourbon legacy, he’s survived this crooked town by reading the angles and staying one step ahead.
But whispers of a high-stakes heist threaten to blow apart the fragile peace between rival mobs—and Jack knows if it goes down, Newport will burn.
To stop it, he plunges into a maze of mobsters, crooked cops, and double-crosses. The deeper he digs, the darker it gets—this isn’t just about money, it’s about power, and someone’s willing to tear the city apart to grab it.
Then Cassie Vale appears, a master thief with her own deadly plan. Brilliant, dangerous, and impossible to resist—Jack can’t tell if she’s his deadliest threat—or his only way out.
The stakes are high. The odds are rigged. And walking away clean was never in the cards.
