                    In the book Ripper most of the chapters are very intersting, but their are a few were our many character Carver is just looking for clues in a library and they can turn out to be boring. In chapter 19 where Carver goes to the Federal Immigration Station where records of immigrants that came to the country, are stored. Carver enters the building and he asks a worker if he can help him find the document where the names of the immigrants that came in the 1889 to lower the number of people that the counter literally pulls strings. This concept seems intersting, but the idea was not used to it's full potential making it seem dull intested of intersting.

                     I believe that the most important event to have happen in the book so far is Carver finding a letter from his father in the orphanage's file storage. The first reason I believe that this is the most important event in the book do to the fact that finding the letter makes him want to become a detective even more.  The second reason that I believe that this is the most important event in book do the fact that finding the letter propels Carver to join the Pinkerton detective agency. The third reason that Carver finding his father's letter because he uses the Pinkerton resources to find his father which leads him to get caught between a killer and the Pinkston.  

                     The character that I would like to meet is Hawking because is the mentor to the main character Carver which means he has the most experience in being a detective. My first question that I would ask to Hawking would be what would intersted him in being a detective? Then I would ask: What was the most intersting case that you have worked on and how did you solve it if you could? Next I would ask if Carver was the first person he had "taken under his wing" if not than who was it before him?  I fould finally ask him how many cases has he solved and what was his hardest case to solve?
