I don't mean to be constantly complaining, I really am enjoying this book but you know what else I could do without: his Dan Brown-esque chapter endings. "The stakes, as they say, were rising."; "But as it turned out, the unhappy tale. . . did surface again at a later point in our investigation, to cause a very real-indeed an almost fatal-crisis." Give it a rest, buddy.

If Caleb could restrict his paragraphs-long descriptions of every single intersection in turn of the last century New York to slightly less than a Tolkein screed I would really appreciate it. Length of the remaining text would seem to indicate this is a vain hope. The actual mystery, when he gets around to it, is quite fun.
