I felt really bad for Emily. The way the characters kept saying that she deserved it and that she wasn't a good person was super annoying.

Especially when they compared it to the other death (Pamela) and said that "well maybe Emily deserved it but Pamela didn't and we'll make sure that we solve this murder" It just made my blood boil. I hated Hugo, hated Charles. I wish Emily lived and got the whole inheritance.

solid, but I really couldn’t hold up with all the names because I am shit at names in general but I also feel like Agatha wasn’t doing me a favour here
