Title: The Devil killed the editor?
Review: I agree with the other one-star reviews here. A friend recommended it to me because I love Caleb Carr's "The Alienist". In contrast, this book is plodding and painfully repetitive. I could've easily made a drinking game of the times Larson uses the phrases "his blue gaze" or the words "Chinook" (as an adjective) and "macadam". Larson has a gift for painfully awkward descriptive phrases and I'd say half of the material in the book didn't lend itself to the story at all.
