    “They need to return to a conference based system,” Svetlana said, slamming her hand against the table. “It was fucking fine the way it was, why are we handing out participation trophies to shitty divisions?”

    Ilya raised his eyebrows from where he hovered in the kitchen, cracking open another Red Bull.

    “This is fun,” he said, deadpanned. “You guys should start a podcast or something. I would not listen, you are both terribly boring.”

    Or, after an injury on the ice forces Shane into an early retirement, he and Svetlana start a podcast.

    Summary

    One clip from the sentencing made the rounds—the world and Ilya watching with sick fascination as Hollander, seemingly shocked by the verdict, jerked toward the spectators before the guards came to lead him away, his eyes wide and full of terror. “Mom!” he cried, just like a little boy. Mom herself stood weeping with one hand over her mouth.

    So much for the Rozanov/Hollander rivalry.

    In December, 2008, Ilya Rozanov and Shane Hollander met during the International Prospect Cup and jointly sized up the competition. Their rising stars were destined to follow a parallel course. But only days before the NHL draft, Hollander inexplicably committed a series of shocking murders and was sentenced to life in prison without parole.
    Now, fifteen years later, Ilya has been arrested in connection with an international drug trafficking conspiracy, and will be granted immunity in exchange for information. There’s only one catch – authorities have discovered new evidence in connection with Hollander’s crimes, and the FBI want Ilya to visit the Baltimore State Hospital for the Criminally Insane to see if a previously uncooperative Hollander will speak to the man who was once destined to become his rival…
