Uma Longa Fila de Homens Mortos

The story moves at just the right speed to build suspense without feeling rushed. I wonder if this pacing was planned from the start or evolved during writing.

The character's backstory added depth, but I was curious whether that was a deliberate choice to humanize the detective or just a side effect.

The atmosphere felt authentic and immersive, making me wonder whether Lawrence Block based it on a real city or crafted it entirely from imagination.
