I listened to this as an audiobook and i really enjoyed the story. It's sort of Poirot meets Downton Abbey. I love murder mysteries so i thought this book would be perfect. On the murder mystery front it was okay, it's not the best i've read but it was not terrible at all. I did like the main character, it took me a while to get my head around the story, i felt there were so many characters that it took me half the story just trying to piece together who was who and how they were all related. Saying that it was still a nice story if a little underwhelming. If you're looking for a great murder mystery story this isn't exactly the book i'd recommend, there's definitely better ones out there.
