In this collection of short stories, Aidan Chambers explores moments of truth, when a character or an event suddenly reveals an often-surprising aspect. A girl loses her humanity when she takes a summer job as a theme-park character; a boy tries to save a girl from a fiery death, only to discover the same event happened one hundred years before. The titular story, in which an innocent game takes a fatal turn, will haunt the reader. These stories are suitable for discussion and showcase Chambers's intelligent prose and understanding of young people's wonderings on the verge of adulthood.
