Milton Burton

Praise for THE ROGUES' GAME

"A long-running poker game, a sting operation, a heist, a secret Nazi past, and to top it all off, a thundering West Texas oil bloom. The Rogues' Game pulls them off in a fast-moving thriller."
- ELMER KELTON, author of Texas Vendetta and the bestselling Texas Rangers series

"Milton Burton's The Rogues' Game is a sassy Western noir novel set in the post - World War II Texas oil patch. The combination of petroleum, poker, and revenge makes for a satisfying stew, and I'm already casing the movie in my mind's eye."
- DON GRAHAM, J. Frank Dobie Regents Professor of English at the University of Texas at Austin, editor of Lone Star Literature, and author of Kings of Texas

"Wildcat drilling and high-stakes poker and more intrigue than you can say grace over, and all of it set in post-World War II West Texas, where the men got separated from the mere pretenders right quick. Milton Burton has dealt us all a winning hand in the Rogues' Game."
- JAMES HIME, author of The Night of the Dance

"A fast and gritty take, The Rogues' Game is full of so many schemers and connivers, you'll want to clean the West Texas crude our from under your fingernails afterward. A hell of a fun read."
- BEN REHDER, author of Bone Dry and Buck Fever

"The Rogues' Game is as rich as a pan shot in Giant, as human as a close-up of a narrow mind. It deals with poker, crime, love, oil, and Texas - and finding what you like and letting it kill you. Hard to believe it's a first novel."
- KINKY FRIEDMAN, bestselling author and Texas gubernatorial candidate
