Excerpt
Excerpt: Dawn of the last day was clear. The sun lifted up over the hills to the east just before seven A.M. Down on the beach, Costigan knelt in the sand with the sun to his back, his shadow striking out over the ocean in the long low light of morning. When he had finished praying, Costigan rose, picked up his weapons, and began dressing. The forest here reached down toward the beach; a strip of sand fifty meters wide separated the water and the trees. Costigan glanced briefly at the locator; his opponent was still two squares away on the grid. The opponent - Costigan thought it was probably the Latino named Roseleaf - would be here within an hour at the outside. He made the rounds of his booby traps, and prepared to wait. It was the last day, and finally, thank God finally, the Game was nearly over.
