When Lucy finds out her youngest brother has gambled away his inheritance at the Pythos Club, she enters the den of iniquity in order to save him. Inside the club she meets the ownerโs alluring daughter, Tisha McGrath, who is more than willing to help her brotherโฆfor a price.

Both women will work together to resolve this scandal before it unravels further but Irena is waiting for the right moment to strike, and Lucy may have no other choice but to give into Irenaโs demands in order to save the ones she loves from utter ruin.
