Sinopsis
The White Ravens Award My name is Jaime Mercader although some people still know me as Little Jim I was born on the twenty one of June 1887 in Aranjuez, a town from Madrid, and these are my memories. In a way, I was a prodigy child; But, unfortunately for public morality, the activity that converted me in prodigious was poker. But, what else could anyone expect from Fernando Mercader's son, a big cheater and a swindler player. I was born with a pack of cards in hands, my dear friends, and ever since I have not released it. Being a child, and fleeing away from justice, my father and I were compelled to emigrate ourselves to America. And right away from the beginning, started the problems, because, just arriving, we sank in front of the coasts of Colombia. Once there, I worked as a waiter at a house of prostitution, I was the croupier of a pocketed a ball roulette and, after moving in to Cartagena of Indies, I became the younger card sharp of the Carib. And those were only my beginnings, because I have also been seeker of treasures, pilferer, smuggler, tribal headman, owner of a casino, involuntary browser..., even an actor of cinema. I have done so many things, and all of them so mistaken, that I probably could have been considered as an example. A bad example, but an example after all. Well then, appreciated possible reader, if you look through this book trying to find wise teachings and correct morals on it, release it right now, because this is not what you are looking for . But if the shaking adventures, the amazing mysteries and eccentric fellows attract you, then do not hesitate paying the few coins that publishers ask for this volume, because that is exactly my life: a silly act to another. Rights sold to Germany.
