He numbs his emotions with online casino games, gambling away ever-increasing sums of their legacy in a drunk and drugged haze. He's struggling to change, and worse: he's promised his embattled girlfriend Soph that they'll use the money to buy a place together, for a fresh start... The lies and losses are mounting up... An unexpected letter arrives... Dan must change his fortune before it's too late... ...and violence is the only way out. The Nth Wheel: A Gambler's Tale is a powerful, tragicomic debut, exposing a sinister and shadowy addiction that affects tens of millions, worldwide.
