About

1947. An enigmatic man driving a fine Lincoln convertible and accompanied by a beautiful blonde, comes to a small West Texas town. Ostensibly, his purpose is to get into a poker game that had been going at the infamous Weilbach Hotel. But as the story unfolds, it becomes apparent that he has a darker motive, one that centers on a sinister local banker named Clifton Robillard. Aided by an old-time hood named Chicken Little, the protagonist maneuvers Robillard toward a shattering climax in which we discover that nothing is what it seems to be.

With its wildcatting spirit, Milton T. Burton's The Rogues' Game is a high stakes novel and an exquisite quest for revenge.

Reviews

"Wildcat drilling and high stakes poker and more intrigue than you can say Grace over, and all of it set in post World War II West Texas, where the men got separated from the mere pretenders right quick. Milton Burton has dealt us all a winning hand in THE ROGUES' GAME."
James Hime, author of The Night of the Dance
"A long-running poker game, a sting operation, a heist, a secret Nazi past, and to top it all off, a thundering West Texas oil boom. THE ROGUES' GAME pulls them off in a fast-moving thriller."
Elmer Kelton, author of Texas Vendetta and a bestselling Texas Ranger series
