Clunky Syntax?

Is it just me or are there some sentences in IV that just don't seem
to parse?
The most jarring example that I've come across is this, from page 137:
"The big time he'd been so crazy to get away from the beach and be
promoted into."

Actually, I think that's just a typo--missing the preposition "for"
after "beach."
