Chess world champion Mirko Czentovic is travelling on an ocean
liner to Buenos Aires. Dull-witted in all but chess, he entertains
himself on board by allowing others to challenge him in the game,
before beating each of them and taking their money. But there is
another passenger with a passion for chess: Dr B, previously driven
to insanity during Nazi imprisonment by the chess games in his
imagination. But in agreeing to take on Czentovic, what price will
Dr B ultimately pay? A moving portrait of one man's madness, The
Royal Game: a chess story is a searing examination of the power of
the mind and the evil it can do.
