John Benton thinks he has nothing left to lose. He's lost his job, he's lost his home, he's barely making enough to survive in a sweltering one-room pit in downtown Los Angeles - and then he finds out his wife is pregnant. When he hears about a game where the players are making thousands of dollars, he thinks this could be their ticket out, to a better life. But he didn't count on the guns. Or the danger. Or that he'd be going up against players who will do anything, double- or triple-cross anyone, to win a Game with no rules. He definitely didn't count on the adrenaline rush. And now, the Game is out to destroy him. Benton has to play for his life and the lives of his wife and unborn child, in a game where the deck is stacked against him and the house always wins. Play the Game is an exciting, fast-paced thriller by Robin Morris, where nothing is as it seems, and trust is an illusion.
