The Dying Game

Anna is haunted by the trauma of leading an aid mission to the war-torn Protectorate of Kyzyl Kum. The mission was successful, until it slowly and painfully began to fall apart. Now Anna, a single mother who rarely sees her daughter, suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). But in 2037 post-military coup Sweden, she is given a second chance. Play dead for 48 hours, and her employment record will be wiped clean and she will be paid enough to retire decades early. The only requirement is that Anna observes how six people, candidates for government positions, react to her demise. Nothing about this stress test can be recorded or written down. No expense is spared for this weekend on a remote island; food and drink run freely. Each person has their own mysterious motivation for participating. The faked death goes exactly to plan. Until Anna wakes up to find another body and is knocked out by someone who isn't admitting that they know she isn't dead.
