Sinossi

A remote Scottish estate. A missing teenager.
When a young archaeologist discovers bones at the site of her Bronze Age Broch on Gallows Hill, the community of Kilbroch hold their breath. A post-mortem on the remains reveals that the body is that of teenager, Robbie MacBride, missing for more than a decade. The teenager was shot at close range, and his gamekeeper father falls under suspicion. However, not everyone is convinced.
The archaeologist, Laura, ex-detective, Callum MacGarvey and Robbie's grandmother continue to investigate, while Robbie's sister, the silent Ruthie, remains haunted by her inconclusive childhood flashbacks. Local landowner, George Strabane is arrested, Robbie's father is released, and it seems that old ghosts have been put to rest.
However, the truth is darker still and the tragic reason for Ruthie's self-imposed silence is finally revealed.

    In the seedy underworld of Las Vegas, an elite game takes place behind the velvet curtain of privilege and deceit. Welcome to the electrifying twenty-first episode of the Solitaire Series—"The Five of Diamonds." 
    Enter Cynthia, or as the criminal underbelly knows her, Janice—a cunning FBI agent submerged deep undercover in a labyrinth of high-stakes gambling and moral compromise. This night should be no different; a routine hand in the backroom tables where $5,000 is just the ante. But when Cynthia's evening takes an unexpected and perilous turn, the deck is suddenly stacked against her. 
    Caught in a web of blurred visions and suspicious allies, Cynthia is rescued from the brink by Jake, a fellow card shark with secrets as cryptic as her own. But who is Jake, really? And why does he cling to the shadows of memory and unsolved riddles? Janet's world turns upside down as she wakes from a drug-induced haze, and the cold confines of an unknown room become her reality. 
    As a twisted alliance unfolds, this seemingly solid façade of a gambling operation unravels into a sinister plot of deception, where predatory gaming masks a darker, drug-fueled agenda. Can two undercover agents from rival factions—Janet, the Queen of her own perilous game, and Jake of the DEA—tear down the house of cards threatening to imprison them both? 
    The answers lie within Solitaire, the corrupt organization reigning supreme over Vegas's illicit empire, where everyone holds their breath for the gamble of their lives. Explore the duplicitous dynamics and rising tempos of intrigue with Episode 20 of the Solitaire Series. Chance, betrayal, and a shot in the dark dictate the place at the table in this high-stakes showdown. Will the Five of Diamonds be Cynthia's final draw, or her ultimate escape?
