"Remarkable for both its ambition and its accomplishment, [it] reads as though it were written by a resurrected Charles Dickens, one chilled by a hundred years of graveyard brooding. . .every page is a pleasure to read." -- New York Times Book Review, " The Death of the Detective is not only about Chicago, it is Chicago. . . . With this one enormous book Mark Smith has emerged as one of the most ambitious, original, and thought-provoking novelists writing today." -- Chicago Daily News
