I really like the way this story is told, from several different perspectives, while managing to maintain a sense of the immediacy of a threat or danger. While modern audiences are likely to already know what is revealed at the end, the way all the threads of the 'mystery' lead towards the end and the eventual reveal remain satisfying.
