I came to this book as a huge Agatha Christie fan and having heard good things about Dorothy L Sayers. While the writing style is a bit more slow-paced and intellectual than Christie’s (with the occasional tangent about sluice gate keeping in the Fenlands), I still enjoyed the twists and turns of the plot and never guessing the true murderer until the end of the book.
