Although Gambled Lives opens with the funeral of a beloved
twenty-two year old beauty, its story is filled with humor as well
as suspense. The narrator, Charlie G., is a diffident, weak willed
millennial who sometimes comes across as a latter day Holden
Caulfield. Charlie has spent much of his youth enjoying the crumbs
left on the table by his best friend Keith, whose intensely
hedonistic lifestyle has included a steady diet of drugs, sex, and
gambling. But when Keith's girlfriend is found dead in her
apartment Charlie is reluctantly drawn into investigating the
girl's death. His inquiries bring him a new perspective on the
world, and new insights into the complex interplay of forces that
govern the course of human relationships; and he comes to
understand that he will have to overcome his passivity and trust in
his own instincts in order to take control of his life.
