Zabiják s krycím jménem Tesseract se pod tlakem okolností rozhodl dát se zapsat na výplatní listinu někdejšího nepřítele. Pro začátek dostane od CIA za úkol odstřelit jiného nájemného vraha, který má zlikvidovat vlivného ruského obchodníka se zbraněmi. A tím se celý kolotoč roztočí. Dva nejbohatší světoví překupníci zbraní se náhle pouštějí navzájem do války. Přesně podle scénáře CIA, která jimi hýbe jako loutkami. Jenže jakou roli v tom hraje Tesseract? To ani on sám neví jistě. Jako obvykle jsou ale ve hře brutalita, smrt a zrada. Ať už je to v Bukurešti, v Berlíně nebo v Minsku, všude budeme bez dechu přihlížet neuvěřitelným akcím. A přestože na zabíjení lidí není vůbec nic obdivuhodného, nejspíš se kupodivu přistihneme, že tomuhle geniálnímu padouchovi se specifickým humorem bůhvíproč držíme palce a přejeme štěstí.

Their faces lined and weary, their clothing altered by ever-changing fashions--the people who ride buses everyday are hardly the stuff of photographs. But the pictures Tom Wood has taken during 20 years of travel on Liverpool's buses are much more than documents of mass transit in England. Rather, they transport viewers and riders alike on an odyssey in which the unspectacular becomes interesting. Seen only through the windows of a bus, the streets, buildings, parks, traffic, and pedestrians of Liverpool are recreated from a human and accessible perspective. The bus itself becomes a predominantly visual space, a metal box with vast areas of glass, a viewfinder that creates an inherent narrative as it moves though a city transformed into pictorial space.

Full of white-hot tension and edge-of-the-seat action, The Game confirms Tom Wood as the most talented British thriller writer today, and Victor as the most unique antihero.
