    Summary

    After the end of the Cold War, the USA and Russia dared to co-operate for the first time on space exploration. In 1994, a brand new organisation was launched: the International C.H.E.S.S project.

    In 2026, the public were given access to select parts of the project's archive. Through the missing pieces, the heavy redactions and the few names allowed to be released, can you piece together the story?

    Summary

    "Go all out in romance and let the chips fall wherever" (Jenny Holzer)

    Things had gotten bad. So much for everything Molokov had told him, Walter thought. The blockade had been implemented, sure, which seemed to be the most nonviolent course of action that Kennedy could have taken, but that wasn’t going to solve everything. Especially not when everything was at DEFCON 2, and the president was still authorizing missiles to be loaded onto ships to perform the first air strikes on the Soviet Union, just in case. The blockade was working, according to McCone, and Stevenson had gotten them a press win with the shit he had pulled at the UN, but that hadn’t made anyone less worried. Walter had been at work since six that morning and hadn’t left even at eight that night. He was going to plan on sleeping at his desk, just to feel useful, but Molokov called him from his home phone, announcing that he had already made it to Walter’s apartment and expected to see him at home. Apparently, Alexander had ‘things to discuss.’

    Summary

    Two years on from Bangkok, Anatoly, Florence, Freddie and Svetlana are living completely different lives. For some of them, it's almost like their chess careers never happened.

    When the four of them are unexpectedly reunited at a grand mansion in rural Hungary, their luxurious evening seems to have turned into their worst nightmare.

    Things turn from bad to worse when their host is found dead in the dining room. With all the doors and windows locked, there was no way in or out. That can mean only one thing: one of them must be the murderer, right?

    Summary

    Something is wrong.

    Svetlana knows this. She has always known this. There has always been something poking at her, prodding, nagging—like an eyelash stuck in her eye, but whenever she looks in the mirror, there is nothing to remove. Like a splinter healed over but never removed.

    She has never been able to put it into words, but that’s alright, because no one will ever ask.
