Sky Lamborsky and Michael "Fingers" Cunningham feel it's time to move forward in life and shed the transgressions of their youth. That means disconnecting them-selves from the Gin, a hole in-the-wall dive bar in Arizona that is a trap for criminals, the kind of place where hard men go to drink, gamble, fight and chase women. The two have a lot in-vested in the place, but even more to lose if the authorities ever catch up with them. But leaving the Gin and its under-the-table activities is not going to be easy. The place is underwritten by Norwood Mira who, on the surface, is a high-profile politico. But underneath, he's a gangster who uses his political connections to further himself in illegal activities. Mira is not a man to cross. In order to begin their new lives, Sky and Fingers must find a way to get out from underneath Mira's control without going to jail-or losing their lives. | The Gin by William L Kostow, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
