Charlie M. (bookaddicted) - , reviewed on 5/27/2007 + 128 more book reviews

Helpful Score: 2

I suppose I thought this was more of an investigative story of a serial killer during the time of the 1893 Chicago World's Fair. While it is that it is also the story of the architect responsible for creating the Fair. In my opinion too much time is spent on the story of the architect (in minute detail) and not enough on the serial killer, considering the title of the book. It could be that there was not enough "evidence" available about the killer but, I almost had the feeling the author was, maybe not making things up, but, embellishing facts.
