This is a weird book. The mystery aspect leaves much to be desired. This book is more like a cheesy Poirot fanfiction. On top of that there are few plot holes and few loose ends remaining at the end of this novel.
Apparently the author was going through a terrible time while writing this(failing marriage and ailing mother). She actually wrote a few short stories and joined them into a novel with the help of a friend. This is evident from how disjointed parts of this novel are.
PS: This novel and murder on the links proves how much better Dr Watson was compared to Hastings.
