Description

Tony Brazzio, co-owner of Club Raven, Baltimore's premiere men's club in 1875, has a pocketful of cash and a chip on his shoulder. He's out to prove to his co-owners -- and himself -- that he's not a fluke, that anyone can be successful give the opportunity, no matter how poor his beginnings.

Bull O'Brian and Dandy Gilroy are two hoodlums from the rough streets of New York's Five Points. They're pickpockets by trade, and both possess psychic talents that make them two of the best. When Tony offers to bring them to Baltimore and give them the chance at a life of riches in polite society, they jump at the chance, if only to steal the members of Club Raven blind.

The best of plans rarely work the way they're intended, and things swiftly go from bad to worse for Dandy and Bull. There's murder afoot and a detective on their trail, and not even copious amounts of hot, sweaty sex can ease their fear or guilt.

As for Tony, he's faced with admitting his experiment is a failure, something he's loathe to do. It'll take a great deal of persuasion, a little luck, and a lot of lube to make sure his plans for Dandy and Bull become more than just wishful thinking.
