Life is too short for a long story. Why not sit down and enjoy a short tale? An elderly countess strikes a bargain with the devil and exchanges her soul for the ability to always win at cards. An army officer, who is also a fanatic about cards, murders her for the secret, then finds himself haunted by the woman's spirit. 时间太少，小说太长，不如读一篇短故事。
三张神秘的牌，传说能在赌场上力挽狂澜，而这一次，却让一个男人输得一无所有......
