Not my favorite of these, trying to tease out why…

-less banter between H & H
- less interaction between the two in general, which is part of the charm of these - the push/pull of intellect and vulnerability between them. The cold hard facts of the murders are not why I read these. 
- the ending/resolution. No spoilers. 

Still, a twisty puzzle, and an entertaining read.
