No coin nor oath required. For personal study only.
Out of millions of March Madness contenders, four men have done the improbable: predicted perfect brackets through the Final Four. Each has chosen a different champion and receives a ticket to the final games to see who will win it all. But the tournament turns their lives upside down in ways they never could have predicted. Cole Kaman, a hapless receptionist in a dead-end job, fills out the bracket at random to impress a co-worker, only to attract the attention of a deranged serial arsonist. Perry Lynwood, a middle-aged gamer who spends his time as a warrior in a virtual city, becomes unhinged as events in the virtual world begin happening in reality. Neeson Faulkner, the ambitious founder of a green energy company, bets everything on the powerful software used to predict his bracket. And Tucker Barnes is a college student who just wants to watch a few games, but he canΠ²Πβ’t seem to escape involvement in an international crisis on the other side of the world. These four men will collide against the backdrop of AmericaΠ²Πβ’s most exciting tournament in a story about genius, luck, ambition, and the unsettling truth that there is always a bigger game. Four men. Four perfect brackets. One tournament. Infinite possibilities.
