Murder comes to Gen Con, the largest tabletop gaming convention in the world, and this time it's no game. After stumbling over the body of a famous game designer, it's up to Liam Parker to figure out who killed the man and–more importantly–why.
Welcome to the Big Show!
Once a year, the greatest tabletop gamers in the world descend upon Indianapolis for Gen Con – the Best Four Days in Gaming – to play games, see friends, and have fun. They play things like Dungeons & Dragons, Magic: The Gathering, Warhammer 40,000, Settlers of Catan, Munchkin, and everything else they can get their hands on. Mostly the competition is friendly.
Sometimes it is not.
When a world-famous game designer turns up murdered at the convention, Liam Parker – the young game designer who stumbles across the body – makes it his quest to figure out who killed the man, and why. In the end, Liam must figure out the rules of this most dangerous game fast – or risk losing his life.
