Dave Gurney is a retired homicide detective trying to make life of retirement work for his wife and himself. But when Dave receives a call from a college friend Mark Mellory who has started receiving bizarre letters and poems, he finds himself quickly caught up in the mystery of what it all means.
In these letters the writer challenges Mellory to think of a number. After he thinks of the number he is instructed to open a separate envelope. This envelope contains the number he just thought of. Soon after, poems with more hidden meanings are being received, each a little more threatening.
"What you took you will give
when you get what you gave
I know what you think,
when you blink,
where you've been,
where you'll be.
You and I have a date,
Mr. 658."
Dave advises his friend to go to the police but Mellory tells him he does not trust the police to handle the investigation properly. The killer makes good on his threats and Mellory is murdered. Dave is asked to assist in the investigation which keeps leading the police in circles. The killer is seems to always be one step ahead.
