The previous game's complications make the stakes higher than ever for Miles to deliver an exceptional hunt to his clients; he searches for the perfect prey to whet the appetites of clients bidding for the chance to be the predators.

Having sworn to protect his sister after the passing of their parents, Victor makes a last-ditch effort to get out from under the mob debt; with nowhere left to turn, Victor has no choice but to accept Miles' offer to join the game.

The game is on; Victor suspects all New Yorkers of being hunters, including subway passengers and the hot-dog vendor on the corner; Victor won't know for sure until they go in for thehug; he gets a one-minute head start.

Victor's rash actions come back to haunt him, and now he must avoid the NYPD along with the hunters looking tohug him; the rules of the hunt are beautifully simple, yet brutally strict, get arrested during the hunt, and the hunt never ends.

Miles is in the hot seat when the Tiro Fund Board gets word of Victor's impending arrest; meanwhile, Victor is in an even hotter seat across town, after the first hour of the game ends and the hunters are all given his exact location.

Cornered and desperate, Victor is forced to relive his childhood trauma; Josie and Mr. Dupree's attempts to help are inadvertently putting Victor in even more danger; the NYPD puts out a BOLO for Victor's arrest.

Victor ditches the protection of crowds for isolation at the city's fringes; however, he's not alone for long; as the cops and hunters encircle him, Victor is on the verge of becoming a permanent player in the game.

Following Victor's arrest, both he and Miles are on the edge of a razor; the integrity of the hunt is spiraling out of control, and Miles presents Victor a game-changing offer, thanks to a new player to uphold the spirit of the game.

Victor is in the most intense fight for his life yet with new games and old faces; the surprises keep on coming as the hunt takes a shocking turn, and Victor learns the truth about his chance meeting with Miles and the Tiro Fund.

With his injuries increasing, Victor's hometown knowledge of New York becomes his best defense, and his only chance for survival; Josie gets the jump on Victor's location and rushes to find him, placing herself at risk.

As the hunt careens to a close, Victor just might win the game; however, with Josie's unexpected arrival, he might lose everything he loves; Miles fears his off-book plays have put him squarely in the crosshairs of the Tiro Fund Board.

As the hunters close in on Victor and Josie, their chances of leaving the game alive dwindle with each passing moment; Miles feels the pressure as well when the board chairwoman forces him to make an impossible choice.
