3.0

Not the best Carr novel I've read, but still amusing and interesting. A touch darker than others, and the ending--while it held the usual twist--felt a little like a cop-out.

Too many details, too many unexplained events.Fell continues to be more a set of quirks than a person. His young, temporary Watsons do not really add to these books other than the odd romantic interest. The initial goofiness has some Wodehouse-ian charm I did enjoy though.
