Name of the Game is Eric Wilder’s book of short stories. Here is a review of the title story, Name of the Game:
Great story! Sexy, engaging, and an "Ah-ha" ending. I loved it. And I didn't see it coming. On reflection, it reminds me a little of "Body Heat" where William Hurt is in Miami preparing to do Catherine Turner's dirty work for her when he sees a clown driving down the street in a 1940's-ish convertible. Their eyes lock as the clown drives by, his face sad, portending the future. The same as your narrator's powder-blue Mercedes. And when it's over, the reader thinks back and his head nods slowly realizing what it all meant. I'm afraid I have no technical criticism to offer. I thought your story was tight, focused and well written. I look forward to reading more of your work. Thanks for a fun read.
