William duffie's game

William lives in Selbridge, a quiet provincial town in Ireland. Fascinated by the splendor of Dublin, where he and a friend have gone for a walk, the young man realizes the dullness of his previous existence. He sees how the big city ignites a thousand passions in people, and he is captivated. When he accidentally stumbles into a casino, William discovers a vibrant world that is completely different from his parents' home. In this place, there is no reminder of time or guidance on what to do. As each day passes, William becomes increasingly immersed in the game, losing track of time and fear. Morality gives way to the powerful forces of excitement, and now he is willing to do anything to satisfy his insane thirst.
