Helpful Score: 1

Do not let the size of this book intimidate you. It's going to be one of the best historical mysteries you've read in a long time! The characters (with the appearance of several famous Americans), the historical New York City, and the science and detection methods all weave together in this fantastic story about the hunt for a serial killer. Dr. Kreizler is the closest to an American Sherlock Holmes as I've seen, and the narrator's storytelling reads much like Dr. Watson. Surprisingly suspenseful and tense as we turn the pages, it all comes to a finale that pays off. Definitely worth reading. 4.5 stars.
