It takes a long time to get anywhere on this story, It takes a lot of reading until he reaches Winslow's house and when there we are given a tour of the old man's house, most of which does not actually add anything to the story.

It also feels like there is a lot of pointless dialogue. So you're saying a lot of that should be cut? Some of that was supposed to set up later events, like the M1 Garand in Winslow's bedroom. That just can't come out of nowhere.

And what dialogue is supposed to feel pointless?
