Clandestine Games is a fast-paced neuro-thriller about four Stanford students who race around campus playing the intellectual scavenger hunt referred to as “the Game.” Their ambition to win leads them to mind-body hacks like lucid dreaming, polyphasic sleep and nootropics for an unfair advantage. However, two counter-intelligence agencies, one foreign and one domestic, see the Game as an ideal “spy lab” where they can test the wits and wills of future recruits. From Stanford campus to a high-stakes poker table in Vegas, the four will be forced to dig deep to overcome challenges thrown at them from both spy agencies. However, for some it will be unexpected internal demons that provide the toughest contest.
