Numbers never lie. People do.And Ray Mancini has been lying - to himself - for thirty years. He kept the books clean for Chicago's most dangerous crime family. He asked no questions. He made no mistakes. He was the perfect accountant - because the perfect accountant is the one nobody ever notices. Until the night he used the wrong entrance. One cold November night, Ray walks into a private room at Caruso's restaurant and sees a dead man eating a sandwich. Not dead. Alive. Comfortable. And working for the FBI. Everything Ray thought he understood about the organization - about his own safety, his own carefully maintained invisibility - collapses in the time it takes a man to look up from his phone. Within days: - His office has been searched - A surveillance car sits outside his home - A stranger knows his daughter's name before she gives it - Two calls arrive from unknown numbers with one message: Follow the numbers. Ray has followed numbers his entire career. The problem is he always stopped just before the destination. Now he has no choice but to arrive. THE NIGHT ACCOUNTANT is an electrifying literary crime thriller about secrets buried in balance sheets, a father running out of time, and the moment a careful man finally stops looking away. Gripping. Intelligent. Impossible to put down. If you loved Presumed Innocent, The Lincoln Lawyer, or Mystic River - this is your next obsession.
