One game. Six students. Five survivors.

It was only ever meant to be a game.

A game of consequences, of silly forfeits, childish dares. A game to be played by six best friends in their first year at Oxford University. But then the game changed: the stakes grew higher and the dares more personal, more humiliating, finally evolving into a vicious struggle with unpredictable and tragic results.

Now, fourteen years later, the remaining players must meet again for the final round.

Christopher J. Yates studied law at Wadham College, Oxford from 1990-93 and initially pursued a career in law before he began working in puzzles, representing the UK at the World Puzzle Championships. Since then he has worked as a freelance journalist, sub-editor and puzzles editor/compiler. In 2007 he moved to New York City with his wife, and currently lives in the East Village.

An inventive and intricate psychological puzzle thriller that mystifies, torments, disturbs, beguiles... a powerfully intelligent debut A compulsive page-turner that will hold your attention until the very last word Sinister, addictive and unpredictable โ€“ this is a novel to be devoured greedily, at speed, but one that will leave its footprint on your memory for far longer Yatesโ€™s take on the collegiate thriller lives up to early comparisons to Donna Tarttโ€™s The Secret History... filled with gleeful malevolence [A] chilling debut...this is a thriller, a cautionary tale and a sobering exploration of unintended consequences rolled into one Expand reviews
