This book is surprisingly quaint, in a way that a book about parking in New York City can be. It’s a little bit of everything: a time capsule from before we all carried supercomputers in our pockets; a cozy legal/political thriller; A Man Called Ove-esque (or is A Man Called Ove more accurately Tepper Isn’t Going Out-esque?) Thoroughly enjoyable.
