A fine plot with so many different angles. 
I couldn't fault it. Easy to read., Gripping in places. Easy to predict. If I could give 6 stars I would None some of the stories are better than others but the worse is only very good Engaging, well paced, likeable characters Dated Interesting murder, chance to solve the case ourselves.
