Joker - Paperback

by Vanessa Star (Author)

When Lily, a French provincial girl, finds herself in Las Vegas together with Phil, her "Prince Charming," life seems like a fairy tale to her. An expensive hotel, new dresses, chic restaurants, popular concerts - she couldn't have dreamt about it in her native Rouen. However, a sudden discovery of a photograph of Phil with another girl strikingly resembling herself, shatters her ideal world and plants a lot of questions about Phil's real motives in her mind. She sets out on a quest for the truth in this game, re-inventing its rules and scrambling the seemingly perfect scenario, created by a criminal mastermind. Will Lily succeed and take the prize or simply be played as a small card in a deck? You will find all the answers in Vanessa Star's suspense short story "Joker."
