The Ballad Of A Small Player Lawrence Osborne by Lawrence Osborne 9781781090169, 1781090165 instant download after payment.

A riveting tale of risk and obsession set in the alluring and dangerous world of Macau's casinos, by the author of the critically acclaimed The Forgiven.

As night falls on Macau and the neon signs that line the rain-slick streets come alive, Doyle - "Lord Doyle" to his fellow players - descends into his casino of choice, to try his luck at the baccarat tables that are the anchor of his current existence. A corrupt English lawyer who has escaped prosecution by fleeing to the East, Doyle spends his nights drinking and gambling and his days sleeping off his excesses, continually haunted by his past. Taking refuge in a series of louche and dimly lit hotels, he watches his fortune rise and fall as the cards decide his fate.

At a moment of crisis, he meets Dao-Ming, a beautiful and enigmatic native Chinese woman who seems to offer salvation in the form of both money and love. But as Doyle attempts to make a rare and true connection, all that he accepts as reality seems to be slipping from his grasp.

Richly atmospheric and suspenseful, The Ballad of a Small Player is a contemporary ghost story, steeped menacingly in the supernatural, but also recalling classics by Dostoevsky and Graham Greene.
