     OK. I apologize for generating the digitizing discussion...let's
     lighten up a bit, and find good stuff for beach blanket reading!
 
     What is your fave murder mystery, detective novel, etc. with good use
     of maps as a key element to the story?
 
     GO TO IT GANG!
 
     The Alienist mentions a large 19th century wall map of Manhattan
     several times during the last half of the novel, but the author
     doesn't say much more.
