What would await them there was, of course, death.

WOW. Just WOWWWWWWWW. I was not expecting that turn of events. It was however an amazing read! I would recommend this book to anyone that likes Golden Age mystery novels!

In my opinion, mystery fiction is, at its core, a kind of intellectual puzzle. An exciting game of reasoning in the form of a novel. A game between the reader and the great detective, or the reader and the author. Nothing more or less than that
