Who controls your life? You? Think again...

Three men reunited fifty years after the Event. So long ago now - it's gone, forgotten, insignificant. But a fourth man remembers only too well...

And now it's payback time.

Three men who went their separate ways, lived their own lives, took their own decisions - or so they thought. But what if someone else was deciding for them? Steering them in a direction chosen by him, luring them day by day, inch by inch towards the final reckoning. The anniversary. The celebration. The end.

But what is an anniversary without guests? Puzzled, bewildered, anxious, Melanie watches as the game unfolds, drawn into its grim, inexorable logic. As she finally grasps the horror that has shaped her life, she wonders if the future will ever be hers to decide. Or is she doomed to follow a course set in advance by forces beyond her control? Robbed of her belief that we act of our own free will, shaken to the core of her identity, will she ever be the person she thought she was? She only knows that she must count on no one but herself.

Unless, perhaps, she finds a companion she can trust.
