Awake Crewman Tintorrel Cader Sigh, reticent and more at home with robots, suffers serious cabin fever during the harsh twenty-one year crossing to Gamma2: already the captain has lost her sanity, and the first officer turned into a paranoid and ruthless bully. To fight losing their minds, the Awake Crew play dangerous 'sanity games'. Tintorrel is invited onto a team with Jackie Shen, the capable Third Officer, and for her and the team, Tintorrel commits a serious crime. When Jackie is court-martialled for the theft, and the sanity games are strictly prohibited, Tintorrel must decide how far he will go to reinstate them, and must face his own past. A dark, claustrophobic science fiction short story capturing both the vulnerabilities and strengths of the human mind, and the ability to inspire hope.
