Query: Thinks it's more clever than it really is

I read this book because Stephen King called it a "masterpiece". I soon came to realize that Mr. King probably read something else, or his brief review was taken way out of context. The author has tremendous potential as a writer, and he uses language in interesting ways, but he's no storyteller. This book is three times longer than it should be because long passages of useless gibberish fill the page rather than advancing the story. And the finale is disappointing. Moreover, I'm not sure he knows anything about cops, or CIA, or lawyers.This book could have been a raucous good read, but it wants a good editing, first. Mr. Marshall is about two books and a good editor away from becoming a an excellent writer.
