This hard-boiled tale from A. W. Gray takes its title from its hero, con artist and poker player Sizemore Brandon, a gentle if criminal giant and sidekick to Pecos Jimmy, a Dallas racketeer
majoring in gambling. When Size is called to testify against his boss, Jimmy decides the time has come to dispense with his services permanently.
The stakes are high, and Size will have to play his cards right if he is to come out on top in the seamy underbelly of Texas.

Editorial Reviews
“Dope dealers, shysters, hookers, a corrupt lawyer, a used
car salesman, and assorted small-time hoods are among the low-lifers who
swagger through this vividly realistic trip across the seedy underbelly of
Texas. Gray…weds hard-boiled dialogue to slam-bang action in a very busy plot
that unfolds in fits and starts like a poker game, full of devious twists and
bluffs.”
—Publishers Weekly
