The Baltimore Truth: Sequel to "King of a Small World"
"King of a Small World" is widely considered the best poker-themed novel ever published. This is its sequel. "Pinocchio" Joe Moore finds himself caught up in the consequences of other people's mistaken sense of "the truth." A home game is robbed; Baltimore's most powerful gangster shot; a New York Mafia family gets involved to protect its interests. This incredibly realistic depiction of criminal culture captivates with its lack of melodrama, cliche characters or cartoonish violence. Truly authentic noir fiction written by a man who's lived the life.
