About this audiobook
Grandmaster Leo Bastian’s life is quiet, calculated, and lonely—until a chance encounter in a grocery store pulls him into a high-stakes emotional gambit. When a stranger named Josie recognizes him, she begs him to help her troubled brother, Danny, a former chess prodigy lost to addiction and fear. Leo agrees to play against Danny in a local tournament, hoping to reignite his will to fight. Over one weekend of tense matches and unexpected connection, all three discover that the most important battles aren’t won on the board—but in the courage to keep playing at all. A story about second chances, found family, and the beautiful unpredictability of the human heart.
