CH02 - Chip Harrison Scores Again - Plot & Excerpts
“You’re in trouble now, Chip.” “I am?” “Bad trouble.” “I don’t see it.” Her hand, thin with a tracing of blue veins, moved quickly and decisively. She lifted a pawn of mine, set her bishop in its place. “Check,” she said. “Oh.” “Think it out if you want, but I can speed it up for you. If you play King takes Bishop, I play Queen to King Eight—Checkmate. If you play King to Bishop One, I play Bishop takes Queen.” I looked at the board for a minute, and she was right. She generally was. I nodded slowly. “You resign?” “Uh-huh.” “Want another game?” “Not right now. I have a feeling I’m never going to learn this game.” “You’re getting better.”
