    Summary

    Shane Hollander: Hockey’s Golden Boy, the sport’s strongest proponent, the most revered player. His talent drew people in, whether by jealousy, admiration, or wonder— reason didn’t matter.

    Ilya Rozanov was the only player who seemed to press at this narrative, pulling at it until it threatened to snap.

    Vying for the spot of number one— visceral on the ice, animal in the sheets— they find themselves orbiting each other; gravitating closer during games, closer beneath dim hotel rooms.

    Over the years a bond forms, inexplicable and dizzying, Rozanov can’t find the will to stay away from him. Entranced, maybe even hypnotized.

    Sometime in late 2016, biting wind and whipping snow, a quiet night finds them sharing Rozanov’s rut together; a whirl of passion, confusion, and devastation.

    Two months later, Tampa, Florida brings a life-changing discovery.
