The Risk Pool is a thirty-year journey through the lives of Sam Hall, a small-town gambling hellraiser, and his watchful, introspective son Ned. When Ned''s mother Jenny suffers a breakdown and retreats from her husband''s carelessness into a dream world, Ned becomes part of his father''s seedy nocturnal world, touring the town''s bars and pool halls, struggling to win Sam''s affections while avoiding his sins.
