In the Maltese Falcon, there's a bit where Humphrey Bogart is telling Mary Astor about his and his partner's initial reaction to her offer. It went something like, "Oh, we knew you were lying. You paid too much money to be telling the truth and enough more to make it alright."

If Mr. Nistage has any brains at all, the enormous amount of money will have him very very worried about what he's getting into.

I love the artwork and the creature emerging from the woman's hair. I'm eager to start reading. Is this going to be a cross between The Maltese Falcon and The Call of Cthulhu? I hope so.

People and some authors in the past have reviewed the book as cross between Conan Doyle and Lovecraft
