When Charlie and I were young, we enjoyed a casino game called Destroyers.... We were sharpening our instincts, jettisoning attachments. We were honing strategies for survival.... Arriving on the Greek island of Patmos broke and humiliated, Ian Bledsoe is fleeing the mental and financial fallout from his father's loss of life. His childhood good friend Charlie - abundant, exuberant, and basking in the success of his new endeavor on the island - could be his last hope. Initially Patmos is apparently a wish - long sun-soaked times on Charlie's yacht and the reappearance of a sweetheart from Ian's earlier - and Charlie readily offers Ian the lifeline he so desperately needs. But, like Charlie himself, this beautiful island conceals a darkness beneath, and it isn't a long time before the dream starts to fragment. When Charlie abruptly vanishes, Ian detects himself swept up in deception after deception. As he grapples with the turmoil still left in his friend's wake, he is reminded associated with an imaginary game called Destroyers they enjoyed as children - a casino game, he now realizes, they may have never ended playing. An enthralling odyssey and a gripping, expansive play, The Destroyers is a stunning and suspenseful storyline of identity, power and destiny, fathers and sons, and self-invention and self-deception, from a article writer at the very height of his power.
