"One, two, three, four." I looked over and saw my brother counting how many people were flooding into the Poppy House tonight. Tonight was the night we'd begin our revenge for what they did to us. The detectives will have no clue, and we'll come out on top for the first time in our lives.
Hidden in the Cards follows two sets of siblings. The first are detectives, and the second are a pair of seemingly normal blackjack dealers at the Poppy House Casino. After the brother and sister are laid off due to "budget cuts" they have to decide if they want to let it go, or take their revenge to the next step.
