I was familiar with the midnight assassin, but had not gone out of my way to learn more. To be frank, this book felt more to be about socioeconomics in Austin rather than about the murders themselves.
Similarly, it feels like the author just tried to cram all of their research into the book, whether it adds to the narrative or not. The text could have been much more incisive and quickly-paced if all the meandering sentences about one-off characters had been cut.
