Past Imperative
In the summer of 1914, Edward Exeter, a young English gentleman, awakens under police guard-grievously injured and wrongly accused of his friend's murder.

But this is not the uninformed Edward Exeter who came naked into this hidden realm years ago. He has lived the Game and learned it well-and he intends to play it boldly to its shocking, worlds-shattering conclusion...
