The rogues' game

Summary: 1947. An enigmatic man driving a fine Lincoln convertible and accompanied by a beautiful blonde comes to a small West Texas town. Ostensibly, his purpose is to get into a poker game that had been going at the infamous Weilbach Hotel. But as the story unfolds, it becomes apparent that he has a darker motive, one that centers on a sinister local banker named Clifton Robillard. Aided by an old-time hood named Chicken Little, the protagonist maneuvers Robillard toward a climax in which we discover that nothing is what it seems to be.--From publisher description.
