I thought the ending was missing something - the conclusion to the secondary story. Otherwise it was very satisfying.

Enjoyable old and old school mystery novel. Think early Agatha Christie, with an amateur sleuth distinguished by his intellect and love of beer.

I enjoyed the story, but the narrative was tough to follow, at times.
Say 4.5 in actuality. An atmospheric mystery with the usual Carr supernatural flourishes that are disposed of…mostly…by the end of the book when the reveal occurs. A really good book.
