Publisher's summary
A visit to an international chess tournament isn't quite the relaxing experience the Counter-Measures team might have hoped for. With a defection to arrange and violence erupting on the streets it's time for a dangerous gambit. What pieces will be left on the table when the Endgame approaches?

- The story concludes with Sir Toby and Rachel listening to what appear to be live radio reports on rioting in the Harlem and Bed-Stuy neighborhoods of New York City. Though the story takes place in 1965, the reference appears to be to the real-life Harlem Riot of 1964. A montage of media coverage from other riots also includes a reference to the real-life 1967 12th Street Riot in Detroit.

- Sir Toby refers to Gilmore leading his entire unit to their death in the Battle of Arnhem during World War II. (AUDIO: Threshold)
- Allison refers to the fact that she was forced to kill her fiancé Julian St Stephen. (AUDIO: State of Emergency) She breaks down at the end of the play at having to shoot someone again.
