2.5 stars. I might be more generous if I hadn't already read Endless Night. Not anything to rave about, but nice in a slogging, boring kind of way.

Read Murder of Roger Ackroyd first, then Endless Night, and then Case of the Caretaker, because they all have similar plot lines, but varying degrees of interesting story building, and Roger Ackroyd is by far the best of the three.

eh, i don't really know how to rate short stories. i mean, this felt like a teaser to something huge, only it wasn't. but i love the writing style and hence the four stars.
