“
I
see
that
,
”
she
said
,
her
voice
a
little
softer
now
.
“
But
I
don
’
t
see
—
”
“
Look
at
the
queenside
pawns
,
way
over
here
.
”
He
pointed
to
the
other
side
of
the
board
,
at
the
three
white
pawns
interlinked
.
She
walked
over
to
the
table
to
get
a
better
look
.
“
He
can
do
this
,
”
she
said
,
and
moved
the
black
rook
over
two
squares
.
Beltik
looked
up
at
her
.
“
Try
it
.

“
Okay
.
”
She
sat
down
behind
the
pieces
.
In
half
a
dozen
moves
Beltik
had
gotten
his
queen
bishop
pawn
to
the
seventh
rank
and
queening
it
was
inevitable
.
It
would
cost
the
rook
and
the
game
to
stop
it
.
He
had
been
right
;
it
was
necessary
to
move
the
king
when
the
rook
had
come
across
the
board
.
“
You
were
right
,
”
she
said
.
“
Did
you
figure
it
out
?
”
“
It
’
s
from
Alekhine
somewhere
,
”
he
said
.
“
I
got
it
from
a
book
.
”
Beltik
went
back
to
his
hotel
after
midnight
,
and
Beth
stayed
up
for
several
hours
reading
the
middle
-
game
book
,
not
setting
up
the
positions
on
a
board
but
reviewing
them
in
her
imagination
.
One
thing
bothered
her
,
but
she
did
not
let
herself
dwell
on
it
.
She
could
not
picture
the
pieces
as
easily
as
she
had
when
she
was
eight
and
nine
years
old
.
She
could
still
do
it
,
but
it
was
more
of
an
effort
and
sometimes
she
was
uncertain
about
where
a
pawn
or
a
bishop
belonged
and
had
to
retrace
the
moves
in
her
mind
to
make
sure
.

She
played
on
doggedly
into
the
night
,
using
her
mind
and
the
book
only
,
sitting
in
Mrs
.
Wheatley
’
s
old
television
-
watching
armchair
in
T
-
shirt
and
blue
jeans
.
Every
now
and
then
she
would
blink
and
look
around
her
,
half
expecting
to
see
Mrs
.
Wheatley
sitting
nearby
with
her
stockings
rolled
down
and
her
black
pumps
on
the
floor
beside
her
chair
.
Beltik
was
back
at
nine
the
next
morning
,
with
half
a
dozen
more
books
.
They
had
coffee
and
played
a
few
five
-
minute
games
on
the
kitchen
table
.
Beth
won
all
of
them
,
decisively
,
and
when
they
had
finished
the
fifth
game
Beltik
looked
at
her
and
shook
his
head
.
“
Harmon
,
”
he
said
,
“
you
have
really
got
it
.
But
it
’
s
improvisation
.
”
She
stared
at
him
.
“
What
the
hell
,
”
she
said
.
“
I
wiped
you
out
five
times
.
”
