    Summary

    Seemingly pleased with the order he’s got them in now, the stranger clears his throat and leans closer, into the circle of the lamplight, to put his own cards down in a perfect mirror of mine. Perfect, because it’s that same miraculous hand, that gambler’s dream twice over, painted cardboard shimmering like fool’s gold in the candlelight.

    T.F., from the moment he first met Graves and beyond.
