After an extremely slow start the story picks up quickly and takes you through a rollercoaster of emotions.  

A must read for anyone that loves Modern day Chicago, Chicago history and/or serial killers. 

Burnham is a genius and Chicago would not be the gorgeous city that it is today if it wasn’t for him and architects that were inspired by him.
