Hey, Jake. Not Scott, but you did post publicly (grin). Do you like intelligent mysteries? Have you read Caleb Carr's The Alienist or Angel of Darkness? Both are in the collection. So is Killing Time, a sci fi mystery which I didn't care for as much, though you might like it. I thought it was labored, but the other two were wonderful! He has a recent one out, The Italian Secretary, (I think) but it's not yet in the collection. If anyone wants to scan it I'd been happy to validate it, but if someone else wants to, that's fine, too.
