All the elements of a classic Golden Age mystery with some fun & clever twists. I could not figure it out.

A good beginning followed by too much padding (a relic of the book's origin) and an ending that pulls a few too many rabbits out of hats. I didn't hate it, and there are definitely fun pieces to it, but it doesn't hold together very well.
