This was my very first crime story that I finished. On the first evening, I read 70 pages in one sitting which is not usual for me. It was intriguing, mysterious and entertaining all the way through. Only thing that bothered me a little were the very present gender stereotypes of that time (also in the way it was narrated) but ultimately, it did not keep me from enjoying the mystery.
