The Number 23
Ever notice how phenomena and events tie to the number 23? Walter Sparrow has: 2012 (20+1+2), the end of the Mayan calendar; 23 pairs of chromosomes in the human body; February 3 (2/3), Walter’s birthday. Here, there, everywhere, Walter sees connections and it may be driving him to madness and murder.
