Eleven Numbers: A Short Story
by Lee Child is something far different than one would expect from the author
of the legendary Jack Reacher series. Instead, this quick read is all about
math and mathematician Nathan Tyler. But, as the publisher synopsis makes
clear, spy stuff is also at work here.
Despite the advice from the airline, the State
Department, and his boss, Nathan Tyler is headed to Russia for a mathematics conference. Tyler is sure that the Russians value and respect
math. He is sure that the conference will an island of calm in a sea of chaos
and noise. Besides, he is a man on a mission and operating on a need-to-know
basis and other folks do not need to know everything that is in his head.
Of course, things go sideways. The questions are twofold.
How did they go sideways? Is he going to get home, alive and in one piece?
