Being used to Agatha Christie type mysteries I found this to be painfully slow. It also had far more romance than I expected. So much so that when attention was finally paid to the mysterious death plot point, it seemed to be solved far more quickly and easily than I think it should have. I like my mysteries with a lot of mystery and a little fluff. This seemed mostly fluff with a dash of mystery.
