Death's Ante is a tenacious exploration of grief, compassion, and what happens in that liminal space between life and death. You are Diane Carden, and she is dying. You are bleeding out from the strike of a hammer against the back of your skull, courtesy of your sister. You also sit at a table with five strange souls and three stacks of black cards. You don't know it yet, but the cards will help decide if you die from your wounds (or any of the insidious trials the cards themselves depict); you also don't know that you have the ultimate decision on this plane called the In Between, where nothing is concrete except your fear and the support of those five other strangers - seemingly separated by time and space - and yet all in the same peril as you. So, do you want to live? Jordan Zachary's Death's Ante is her first published novella, and we can only hope to read much more from her as she continues telling stories both thrilling and macabre over the near future and into the beyond.
