Conduit

Following the twelve chapters of the Games and Rianna narrative, we meet twelve people, progressively younger, one for each month of the year. The first eleven of these people have recently died. Games's interest in these people leads him to listen for their stories. He hears from each person a voice that seeks stronger connections - ultimately, a voice of courage and hope. And what Games learns in this foundational year also strengthens his relationship with Rianna. Conduit, however, does not end with the year. It remains to be seen whether what Games has learned will help with the rest of his life. Games cannot stop that people will die. Yet death, he knows, will never be the final word.
