The way Teddy threw the dice at the craps table was literally out of this world. He had a shooting style that was unique and stylized, for sure, but more importantly,-now and then,-two hawks appeared to him when he closed his eyes and gave him the gift of prescience.Why was it that only Teddy got to see the hawks? Why did they not appear to anyone else? Was his brain, mind, consciousness wired in a special way that he was able to tap into a different realm invisible to others? Trish had no answers to any of these questions, but she remembered her father, who was a physicist, saying to her once that, very conceivably, there was a parallel universe in which all the known quantities of science behaved very differently, perhaps antithetically.A cast of colorful characters join Teddy on his casino adventure, as the flight of two hawks intermittently dictate the steps in the dance of the dice.This charming tale will appeal equally to craps aficionados and to those who enjoy magical realism in fiction.
