Cheyne Scarne was a gambler... and he took the big plunge when he bet hislife to get to the inner circle of the Grand Wheel. Because the Wheel wasthe ultimate Syndicate - the final Mafia - that controlled all that wasillegal in all the planets under human control. But Cheyne was not to knowwhether he had won or lost when he gained his point. Because the Wheel hadplans for him. And they made him the historic offer he could not refuse.There was, it seemed, a similar gambling combine in the rest of the galaxy,bigger by far than the little group of stars held by Earthlings. And theWheel wanted a cut in this. So Cheyne Scarne found himself selected to behumanity's own player in a game in which nobody knew the value of the cardsand the rules of the game were infinitely variable!
