Overall: meh. The writing is clean and clear. The plot is also clean, without holes. There is a lot of rambling dialog in which characters dig deeply into other characters' psychology, and frankly, it gets a little boring, especially by more modern standards. I'm not sorry I read it. If another Nigel Strangeways mystery falls into my lap, I'll probably read it, especially if I'm not too busy.
