Think of a Number: A Novel (A Dave Gurney Novel)

The first book in the Dave Gurney series, Think of a Number is a heart-pounding game of cat and mouse that grows relentlessly darker and more frightening as its pace accelerates
Â
Threatening letters arrive in the mail over a period of weeks, ending with a simple declaration: â€œThink of any number . . . picture it . . . now see how well I know your secrets.â€ Those who comply find that the letter writer has predicted their random choice exactly. But when oddities that begin as a diverting puzzle quickly ignite into a massive serial murder investigation, police are confronted with a baffling killer, one who is fond of rhymes filled with threats and warnings, whose attention to detail is unprecedented, and who has an uncanny knack for disappearing into thin air.
Â
Brought in as an investigative consultant, Dave Gurney, a recently retired NYPD homicide investigator, soon accomplishes deductive breakthroughs that leave local police in awe. Yet, even as he matches wits with his seemingly clairvoyant opponent, Gurneyâ€™s tragedy-marred past rises up to haunt him, his marriage approaches a dangerous precipice, and he wonders if heâ€™s met an adversary who canâ€™t be stopped.
Â
A work that defies easy labelsâ€”at once a propulsive masterpiece of suspense and an absorbing immersion in the lives of characters so real we seem to hear their heartbeatsâ€”Think of a Number is a novel youâ€™ll not soon forget.
