Pursuing an affair with János is Esmé - the very attractive but unpredictable daughter of Stephen Lister's old friend Broom - for whom the author from friendship and affection feels a certain, albeit irritated, responsibility. Esmé becomes partner with János in his roulette system which causes grave disturbance in the casinos of the Riviera, London and Las Vegas, and Stephen Lister's guardianship, even with the support of Father Delorme, is frequently put under very considerable strain.
