ROUGHLY THROWN DICE

Roughly Thrown Dice is about a group of people at a high-end ski resort who are captured in a terrorist attack. The outer story is about the effort to rescue them. The captives are taken far away and kept in a locked room. The inner story is a series of tales they tell each other to pass the time. Some tales are attempts to get back at another captive whom the storyteller does not like. Others recount unusual occurrences witnessed in person, tales of romance or tales with a moral. Part of the story focuses on the relationships among the captives, who are drawn from many walks of  life.
