One other thing about BLUE BOTTLE: Lew is investigating two cases (which are, of course, interrelated). One is the search for a missing courier that has disappeared with a large sum of mob money, the other is a search for a missing novelist. This struck me as either a riff on or homage to THE LONG GOODBYE. Does anyone out there know if this was intentional or not?

He references Chandler so often I'm surprised he never noted the obvious similarities in print.

Or am I reading into it improperly?
