A teacher described this story to me and I'd love to find it--it reminded us
of the Hunger Games.  The description is pretty sketchy, but maybe it will
ring a bell for someone.
Set at some point in the future, there are no longer any wars, instead each
country sends a representative to a war game.  The individual who wins gets
whatever they want (above the law, etc.) forever.  There is a disturbing
scene at the end where the winner goes into a house and takes a girl
upstairs (against her will and presumably to rape her) and her parents can't
do anything about it.
Anyone?
Thanks for your help!
Amy :)
