Abstract

I have an obsession with numbers. It isn’t a quirk or an intellectual hobby; it’s an instinct sewn directly into my marrow, the only defense mechanism I have ever known.

When I was five, a kidnapper dumped me on a desolate stretch of dirt road on the outskirts of the city. I didn’t cry. Instead, I cataloged the journey in my head: seventeen speed bumps, two blasts from a freight train’s horn, and the rumble of a city bus that passed on an exact nine-minute loop. Using those intervals, I led the state troopers straight back to the stash house.
