[brackets]

Four men have done the improbable: predicted perfect March Madness brackets through to the Final Four. Each has chosen a different champion and receives a ticket to the final games to see who will win it all. But the tournament turns their lives upside down in ways they never could have predicted. Cole Kaman, a hapless receptionist in a dead-end job, fills out the bracket at random to impress a co-worker, only to attract the attention of a deranged serial arsonist. Perry Lynwood, a middle-aged gamer who spends his time as a warrior in a virtual city, becomes unhinged as events in the virtual world begin happening in reality. Neeson Faulkner, the ambitious founder of a green energy company, bets everything on the powerful software used to predict his bracket. And Tucker Barnes is a college student who just wants to watch a few games, but he can't seem to escape involvement in an international crisis on the other side of the world. These four men will collide against the backdrop of America's most exciting tournament in a story about genius, luck, ambition, and the unsettling truth that there is always a bigger game. Four men. Four perfect brackets. One tournament. Infinite possibilities.
