Summary
"The place: Auckland, New Zealand / Aotearoa. The time: to be revealed as our hero attempts to rescue his family in the State-sponsored Game of Life. The prospect: happiness - but only for the Citizen who asks no questions. ... Who are the all-powerful Tribunal and President? Who are the Hunters and the Hunted, and the allies from the depths of the city? Is this just another phase in a longer, more deadly struggle? Did it really begin way back, in the 1980s?... " --Back cover.
