Ortiz is a card mechanic with blood on his knuckles and a rigged deck in his pocket. At the Vagabond, an off-the-grid gambling joint, he and his partner Fay run the perfect con—quick, clean, and gone before the suckers know they’ve been played. That’s the plan. But not everyone at the table is playing by the same rules. Vince, a Caribbean grinder with a busted arm and a kill switch temper, spots the play and flips the game. The room erupts—blood, fire, and payback. Pulling the con is easy. Getting out clean is where it all goes wrong. And when the smoke clears, something in the dark shifts—and it isn’t done yet.
