by Kevin Stokker (Author)

This collection of short stories-Stokker's first-explores themes from serious to whimsical and styles from stream of consciousness to stylistic adaptation to horror. Included is a prequel to Stokker's chess mystery novels, White to Move and Lose and Black to Move and Draw. Each story is dedicated to a member of his weekly writers circle and is followed by a reflection that reveals the thoughts and motivations behind the work.
