On a beautiful October evening, a tech gala at the iconic Guggenheim Museum in Manhattan is bombed, incinerating 700 innocent people. As the FBI begins to sift through the digital histories of the victims in search of any clue that might provide context for the attack, it becomes apparent that they are ill-equipped to parse out the data involved with such a massive casualty event—they need more computational firepower.

Enter Lucas Page—astrophysicist, university professor, father, mathematical savant, misanthrope.

Page agrees to help with the investigation as long as he is not forced to adhere to the groupthink of the bureau—he knows he does not play well with others. But as he follows the data down the investigative rabbit hole with his friend and liaison—Special Agent Alice Whitaker—it becomes apparent that the bombing is only the opening salvo of a well-planned crime campaign that threatens the very social fabric of the city he calls home. And the people he cares about.

City of Windows—the novel that redefined the modern crime thriller.

The 2020 winner for Best Foreign Crime Novel of the Year at the renowned Cognac Crime Film Festival.

During the worst blizzard in memory, an FBI agent in a moving car in New York City is killed by a nearly impossible sniper shot. Unable to pinpoint where the bullet came from, and with the storm rapidly wiping out evidence, agent-in-charge Brett Kehoe turns to the one man who might be able to help—former FBI agent Lucas Page.

Page, a university professor and bestselling author, left the FBI after being gravely injured in a tragic accident—an event that a decade, numerous surgeries, and sophisticated prosthetics have almost enabled him to forget—which is why he is reluctant to step back into his old job. But he has an amazing ability to read a crime scene, figure out angles and trajectories in his head, and might be the only one who can do what the FBI’s computer models couldn’t—find the sniper’s nest. With a new wife and family, Lucas Page has no interest in helping the FBI—until he learns that the victim was his former partner.

Page finds himself hunting a killer with an unknown agenda and supreme sniping skills in the worst of conditions. And his partner’s murder is only the first in a series of meticulously planned executions carried out with all-but-impossible precision. When Page starts to see a pattern, the killer changes tactics, and Page’s own family becomes a target.

To identify and hunt down this ruthless, seemingly unstoppable killer, Page must discover what hidden thread connects the victims before he himself loses all that is dear to him.
