If Stiff doesn't win, we can have a second book club thread for those who are interested. We've done that before. I would still highly recommend that you read "Devil in the White City" if you haven't already though.

What happens in the event of a tie? Why not both, and run two threads?

Fingers crossed for Stiff!

If we have a tie, will there be a run-off election?

I'd rather see a run-off than two separate threads.

In the event of a draw, the cheaper book should win, as judged from outside the US. So, Stiff wins!

I've checked with some experts and they advise me that the usual course of action is to go with the one with the longest title.
