A time for crime has come.

The stakes where already high enough at Giovanni Galante's poker table that night in Chicago. Poker. Dealer's choice. Seven players. A million-dollar cash buy-in.

But after a superpowered disaster, the most high-profile criminals in the city are scattered throughout the past and their schemes across time threaten the stability of the world.

Featuring a fresh cast of characters, the latest tale set in George R.R. Martin's Wild Cards universe is a time travel adventure that leads to the criminal underworld of 1920s Chicago.

Includes a brilliant collection of original stories from such giants of the world of science fiction and fantasy as Saladin Ahmed, Paul Cornell, Marko Kloos, John Jos. Miller, Mary Anne Mohanraj, Kevin Andrew Murphy, Christopher Rowe and Melinda M. Snodgrass.
