Ella Sheridan è il capo macchinista della nave cargo Realgar. È bella, intelligente e pronta a tutto, ma ha anche qualche difetto: le piace giocare d'azzardo. E con le carte, si sa, sono piú le volte che ti va male che quelle in cui ti va bene.
È piena di debiti fino al collo quando viene avvicinata da alcune dubbie figure in una taverna squallida. Quello che vogliono proporle, le dicono, è l'unica possibilità di salvarsi dai suoi debitori.
In un susseguirsi incessante di tradimenti e doppi giochi, Ella dovrá lottare per la sua vita contro il piú temibile dei nemici: la Gilda dei Mercanti.
