Publisher's summary

ALL BETS ARE OFF.

Red has tried to keep his nose clean but the sins of his past still haunt him. They’ve forced him back into the darkness—toward a life he’d hoped to leave behind. Now he has just four days to make things right.

The scam seemed safe enough at first, but now Red is six figures in debt, and there's more than just money at stake. There's making things right with the daughter he turned his back on. There's greasing the palms of the disturbed criminals holding his geriatric mother as collateral. There's being able to face himself in the mirror.

Everyone in the city's underbelly knows there’s only one way to obtain such a large sum on short notice...

Shadows is an underground casino where nightmares are born and dreams go to die. Where humiliation, drugs, and violence are as much a part of the games as cards and dice. When Red enters a world where money isn’t the most coveted prize, will he earn enough to solve his problems, or suffer the ultimate loss?

Had me hooked beginning to end.

One of Aron's beat works. Really wish we had closure on Red's "daughter" though.

Gruesome Fun

Classic Beauregard work with gut wrenching gore that keeps you guessing. Would’ve like to have see a little more refinement rather than simple shocking scenes for simple shock sake. Otherwise a good splatterpunk addition.

So gross but I loved every second of it

I have read/ listened to many of Aron's books, huge fan, but this is the first one I had to pause and take a break on cause it was too much at once, haha. I really enjoyed the story line and the details were perfect.
Choosing my own ending was pretty cool too, I haven't seen that done in awhile!

As twisted as expected

Aron never disappoints. Sick and twisted, demented and stomach turning. The shit of nightmares. Amazing

Disgustingly vivid

This is not for the easily disturbed. Beautifully horrid imagery. I honestly couldn’t put it down.

A very bad Casino

The story was very engaging. Wanting to know more about “Shadows Casino” then listening to how descriptive the games are played was the worst. Very Awesome Book!

umm...yeah

This book was definitely a book. there were pages and words, and someone decided to read those words out loud.

All kidding aside, I did enjoy this book. it was captivating and intriguing and held my attention the entire time. There were definitely some scenes in this book that made me feel sick, but that wasn't necessarily a bad thing.

This was probably my first full blown extreme horror novel and I was hesitant when I started, but I was pleasantly (or not so pleasanlty) surprised that it wasn't that bad.
I give it 🤢🤢🤢🤢

Great Story

If you were able to take out the extra gory and gross bits, the basic premise of this story is amazing. I was really rooting for Red throughout. Aron did it again 👍🏻
