By six in the morning it's already ninety degrees. The asphalt on Main Street goes soft under your heel. Detective Bill Drey has worked this city nine years — long enough to know that in Dallas, a lie isn't always a lie. Sometimes it's just a way of not explaining what's inconvenient to explain.
When a body turns up in the basement of a rooming house on Elm Street, the scene tells two stories at once. In the dead man's fist — a crumpled lottery ticket from Bynion's policy wheel, the illegal numbers racket running out of Deep Ellum. On his lapel — a Klan pin.
A man who prays in one place and gambles in another. In this city, that's not hypocrisy. That's survival.
But someone decided this particular man's survival was no longer convenient.
Two blocks away, Deep Ellum is changing shifts — the night musicians leaving, the day workers arriving. Bertha Katzman knows more than she says. Tom Pyatt from the Dallas Morning News knows something too, though he arrived by coincidence. He always does.
Narrated in Drey's own voice — measured, precise, and bone-dry — The Wheel of Fortune is the second book in The Harwood Street Chronicles: a noir series set in the real streets of Dallas, where Deep Ellum still runs two blocks off Elm, and the policy wheel turns whether the law notices or not.
