Yes, a 500 page novel about boring playing cards. Or, are they just playing cards? Ask the 11 year-old who got them in 1984 and eventually uses them in a poker game at a Brown University fraternity. The mom in Colorado who needs them to distract and calm her Asperger son. How about the assassin in Zurich who leaves a message on them? Or the hundreds of golfers and some caddies at Kiawah Island who enjoyed them after a round. Then there is the pilot, honeymoon couple, Spaniard, high-class Belgian escort, and Vienna cafe owner, and others, who all left their DNA on them in their own unique way. How can they just be boring cards?
Addison Briggs has no idea the cards he gets while flying alone to Washington DC, will travel first class all over the world. From Miami to Geneva, the Maldives to Denver, Madrid to Carmel, and possibly Tokyo? His Eastern Airline cards are either the center piece or in the background for real, human experiences. With historic events as clues, the reader moves back in time following the cards and those that shuffled them.
