From the screenwriter of the Oscar-nominated House of Sand and Fog comes a fierce, elegant pause-register about race, money, and the American Dream.
JW is a small-town banker; his specialty, teaching other bankers in towns near Indian reservations how to profit from casino deposits without exposing themselves to risk; his problem, he lost his son in a car accident a year ago, he's depressed, his wife is leaving him, and he can't stop gambling.
When he is caught embezzling funds to support his addiction, JW's boss offers him a choice: he can either accept responsibility and go to prison or use his talents to sabotage a competing Native American banker named Johnny Eagle. With the clock ticking, JW moves into a trailer on the reservation within sight of his prey. But as he befriends Eagle and his son, JW finds that his plan to reclaim his freedom will be more dangerous than he ever could have imagined.

An excellent pick!

The story is the downward trajectory of the main character due to his own blunders. Instead of sympathy for him, it seemed to me he just got what he deserved. At book's end, I wasn't satisfied; I was just glad it was over.
A book this well-written deserves a better review, but I gotta be honest.
