Think of a Number by John Verdon

4.0

This was a really clever debut mystery. The clues were carefully laid and the plot moved along at a fast, but not breakneck, pace. The main character is a retired detective who can't let his old job go after a long lost acquaintance resurfaces asking for help with a bizarre mystery. This had a more literary quality than many of the detective/mystery/serial killer genre books I've been reading and I found it refreshing.
