Summary
Jack Marston returns from serving in WW1. However, he doesn't return to the lonesome home he knew. Instead, he travels to Atlantic City, in hopes of finding a better, honest life for himself.
Soon, Jack runs into a friend he served with in the war, Jimmy Darmody, who offers to help him make good money, through bootlegging. Though, Jack doesn't want to follow in the footsteps of his outlaw father. So, instead, Jimmy sets Jack up to be the driver for his mother, Gillian. A woman, who proves to be charming, classy, beautiful, and tempting. Far more than Jack bargained for.
Now Jack must battle with the guilt of having an affair with this stunning temptress, while also trying to keep his nose clean. A feat that proves near impossible in this city of vices.
(Crossover of Boardwalk Empire and Red Dead Redemption. Takes place after the first Red Dead Redemption game.)
