Ditto to the earlier message. The concept is interesting, as Carr's concepts always are, but the delivery was flat. The characters (especially the love relationship) were never built up, I didn't really care about any of them. It did have action in sections that was gripping, but overall I was very disappointed after LOVING the Alienist and appreciating Angel of Darkness.
