I have not read the Tommy & Tuppence series (this is the 4th book) so maybe i had no emotional attachment for them created in the other novels.
I found the story to be a terribly written mystery with obvious clues and the atypical detective "ah ha!" moments.
I didnt find the twist ending exciting or overall interesting. There were still multiple unanswered questions left. What of the diamonds, if Lily Waters dad was told, was she the ballerinas daughter, who knows, who cares, and the characters just leave it be after being told the truth. No conclusion just a lazt retirement.
Tw/Cw discussion: the ageism, sexism and terrible birtish slang is extremely off putting and i dont care for the time period argument because agatha has been called out (before death) for weird writing
