She likes the sudden seconds of sheer terror. The neon dreams fit flawlessly with the dreams that wake her up at night: about the person she loved and lost, about the frequent temptations in her life, and about the chances that inevitably she’ll maintain the right place at the right time to look naked, human madness in the attention.

Welcome to the world of Susan Pulaski, an unconventional and unusually subversive NEVADA police behaviorist who’s already been canned once and has never been needed more. Inside the LAS VEGAS, someone is ritually murdering handpicked victims, each with dirty secrets in their past. The killer’s gimmick: Not only does he leave behind parts of the victims’ bodies, he also writes obscure mathematical formulas–in their blood. Pulaski doesn’t have a clue what the codes mean. But she knows somebody who will.

Darcy O’Bannon is a twenty-six-year-old whose autistic savant skills are perfect for unraveling such mysteries as how many rivets are in the Eiffel Tower and how many Elvis impersonators you will see in the entire year 2020. Since it works out, innocent Darcy can also think across the arcane lines of Vegas’s most savage serial killer, peering into a numerological mystery that stretches back hundreds of years.

With her own life one spark from going off the rails, her department turned against her, and the lives of these she cares most about in danger, Pulaski hunts for dangerous prey in the shadow of the Strip–with herself as the perfect bait. And the closer she gets, the more terrifying and intriguing the truth becomes, for the individual she’s tracking possesses truly ingenious powers–and a heart packed with hate.

The incomparable William Bernhardt brings to life America’s most fascinating city and the folks who police it, while he invites the reader to join one woman’s fight to stay sane, stay alive, and keep a killer from making the most shocking score of most.
