Rezension von Mrs Moriarty3,5 langatmig erzählt, der Mordfall war interessant, aber mir fehlte Atmosphäre.
Rezension von Jassi~ 3.5 stars ~ a pretty good murder mystery, very much agatha christie! the beginning of the book starts slow but gets faster paced towards the ending, it’s very captivating and i just needed to know the ending! i was actually surprised by the twist but i didn’t really like it but maybe it’s just not my cup of tea?… also i wished the dynamic between the detective and main character would have been better.
