    A 1955 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud is a fantastically expensive car, especially in the pristine condition of the one owned by Muriel Cantrell. Living in a luxury apartment building on Central Park West, the sweet seventy-five-year-old woman is a neighbor of Merilee Nash, the beautiful movie star, and Stewart Hoag, whose first book was a sensation but whose career crashed when he became involved with drugs and alcohol. Divorced ten years earlier, Hoagy has been welcomed back into Merilee's life and apartment. 
 
 
 
Apparently universally beloved in her building, residents are shocked when Muriel is murdered after a Halloween party. No one takes it harder than her longtime chauffeur, Bullets Durmond, whose previous job was as an enforcer for the mob. Who in the world would want to harm the silver-haired lady whose major vices were buying shoes and Chanel suits, and watching daytime soap operas? 
 
 
 
Lieutenant Romaine Very of the NYPD is called to investigate and again seeks help from his friend Hoagy who, along with his basset hound Lulu, has been an invaluable aide in the past. The investigation leads to the unexpected source of Muriel's wealth, the history of her early years as a hatcheck girl at the Copacabana, how her chauffeur came to be called Bullets, her desperate meth-head nephew, and her wealthy neighbors, who have secrets of their own.

    In a shadow-drenched Los Angeles, 1968, Jack is a man caught between a deadly task and a ticking clock. As episode 22 of the gripping Solitaire Series unfolds, under the watchful eyes of unseen adversaries, Jack finds himself navigating the treacherous underbelly of the city under the pseudonym "Seven of Spades." 
With sunset casting long shadows over the deserted Alpha Beta parking lot, Jack unearths unsettling secrets hidden within a seemingly ordinary van—an enigmatic signet ring and two decks filled only with Aces of Spades. As Jack strives to piece together the mystery under the threatening growl of his empty stomach, his reliance on experience and muscle memory is tested against the silent whispers of danger lurking at every corner. 
Encountering a bizarre mix of fake lawmen and shadowy figures, Jack must discern ally from enemy as deception layers upon deception. A hidden bullet and a disturbing realization that his backup might not be what it seems force Jack to question the very ground he stands on. 
Facing echoes of laughter that conceal deadly intentions and piercing eyes that hold secrets, Jack knows one misstep could silence him forever. As he immerses himself in an early morning dash for truth and survival, breakfast plans at Nick’s Cafe morph into a nerve-straining game of cat and mouse that could lead Jack deeper into the heart of darkness. 
Prepare for a heady plunge into the noir world of trust and betrayal, where one man's quest for clarity becomes a twisted dance with fate, in *Seven of Spades - Part 2*, where nothing is as it seems and every shadow hides a story just waiting to be unmasked.
