What a fun novel. I really liked trying to figure everything out and piece all the evidence together. I think the ending was a bit... extravagant, and I would have liked more plot throughout besides just interviews. Also, there were so many stereotypes that felt super unnecessary, and possibly just Agatha Christie's bias and racism coming through YET AGAIN!! It just makes the reading experience uncomfy. Otherwise, the pacing and backstory were interesting (if not a little triggering!) and all of the characters were quite dynamic.

Lots of casual racism and classism being used as THE solving logic. Very ignorant writing that spoils an otherwise good wind up.
