Title: Top Drawer Puzzle of a Mystery!
Review: First the bad news!The bad guy here does not really fit, and there are a few characters who seem almost cartoonish. Otherwise, this is a real knockout, with a really eccentric FBI man, whose investigatory tools include using renaissance-era "Memory Palace" techniques. There is plenty of arcania here as we explore the underground vaults of the NYC Natural History Museum, the mean and oz-like streets of the great city, and the bureaucratic maneuvers of those who run the city, the police, and the museum. Also plenty of bizarre PT Barnum-like late 19th century curiosities, and bone digging. So if you like an accessible, educational, mysterious tour through NY of now and 100-plus years ago, you can't miss with one!
