Billy is the true story of a compulsive gambler who went to the depths of depravity to feed his gambling addiction--stealing from those who loved him and from people who trusted him. His story depicts a seven-year period where the only thing he cared about was getting enough money to gamble. Gambling was first, last, and everything. Yet with help and a stubborn determination, he slowly turned his life around to become a well-respected business man, able to hold his head up high after years of skulking in the shadows.
