The stakes have never been higher and the game is far from over.
Detectives Dylan and Dillon are used to solving high-profile cases, but their latest assignment takes them into the heart of Indiana's largest tabletop gaming convention: Game Con. What was supposed to be an all-girls getaway for Dylan and her friends quickly turns into a real-life nightmare when a fellow gamer collapses and dies during a high-stakes board game session.
As the convention halls of Indianapolis teem with over sixty thousand fans, the body count begins to rise. A second death in a train-themed hotel room and a terrifying "accident" on a rusty fire ladder prove that a calculated killer is stalking the group. Amidst a world of "sarcastic banter and backhanded compliments," Dylan and Dillon must peel back the layers of a close-knit circle of friends where every move is a strategy and every secret is a weapon.
With the killer following the script of their own twisted murder mystery, the detectives must win one final round to unmask the culprit before the convention ends-and before the next roll of the dice proves fatal.
