Frank Gillis, a low-level crook with a history of bad decisions, is trying to turn his life around and go straight. His spirited girlfriend, Ginger, a stripper with dreams of a better life, convinces him to take on one last score before they settle down: a seemingly simple robbery of a bingo parlor in Oklahoma City. Of course, nothing is ever simple in the criminal underworld. The heist quickly spirals out of control, resulting in a dead body and a missing suitcase full of cash. Now, Frank and Ginger find themselves entangled in a web of double-crosses, suspicious characters, and a desperate chase for the money, all while trying to evade both the law and a dangerous gangster. Berney's debut novel is a fast-paced, darkly humorous ride through the seedy underbelly of a forgotten city, paying homage to classic noir while delivering fresh, unexpected twists.
