Tropes: Inherited secrets, Hunter vs. prey, Psychological manipulation, Cat-and-mouse chase, Betrayal
Read if you like: manhunt thrillers, psychological cat-and-mouse, ledger-and-legacy plots

Betrayed and orphaned, James races through forests, abandoned cabins and industrial mazes after a ghost from his father's past. Alliances shatter, and even the help he is given turns into a trap.

### The feel of the read

The plot is built around an inherited secret; James Harlan is reacting to a network that already knows him, rather than building a scheme of his own from scratch. That reversal, hunted instead of hunting, shapes most of the book's tension.

### Who this book is for

Works well for readers who like cat-and-mouse plots where the protagonist has to work out the rules of a trap while already inside it, and who enjoy family-legacy hooks in their crime fiction.

### Format, price and where to read it

A Game For The Dead is $3.99 on Kindle, free to read with Kindle Unlimited, and also available in paperback.
