Now residing in upstate NY, past LAPD lieutenant Peter Decker is plunged into a bizarre web involving academia, underworld criminal offense, and determining killers in this compulsive novel in New York Times best-selling writer Faye Kellerman's precious Decker and Lazarus series. Past LAPD lieutenant Peter Decker is relishing the calm and slow speed of his new job with the Greenbury police force department. The task is low stress and engaging, and it's been almost per year since the previous murder in this sleepy upstate NY town. Then the body of any nude man is found deep within the woods, shattering Decker's peace. The death is apparently a suicide - a single shot to the top, the firearm by his side. But until the coroner's ruling, the scene must be cured as a dubious crime. Without the personal effects nearby the body, Decker must dig to uncover his identity, a task made difficult by the department's restricted budget and limited personnel. Luckily Decker gets some unexpected help when his good friend and past Greenbury colleague, Tyler McAdams, calling, buying a quiet location to research for his rules finals. The investigation requires Decker and McAdams to Kneed Loft College, where they must permeate the indecipherable top echelons of mathematics and numerical prodigies. Under the school's rarified atmosphere, they discover a sphere of scheming academics, covered cyphers, and - most dangerous of all - a realm of underworld criminal offense that transforms safe nerds into frosty, calculating bad geniuses. It will take most of Decker's experience and McAdams' brains to permeate enigmatic formulas and codes and solve a dark, twisted criminal offense devised by some fantastic and depraved masterminds.
