cóż to była za beznadziejnie słaba książka... chyba oczekiwałam od niej za dużo, nie sądziłam że Sherlock będzie sobie wróżył z ręki rozwiązanie zagadek, bo nikt nie powie mi, że jego rozumowanie jest logiczne albo oparte na faktach.

Very underwhelming...
I'm not quite sure how I feel about this book.
I had some high expectations since the character in the book is extremely famous.
But I didn't like it and I wasn't excited about the stories. The book was kinda boring and I understand why Arthur wanted to kill the main character so many times.
Their is no plot twist because you simply don't know any of the characters it's like we're just being kept in the dark all the time and it was executed in a way that didn't help the story.
Also the backstory to the killer was so bizarre, it started suddenly and was too detached from the main story that I actually thought it was a second short story or something, it was written in a decent way but it almost had nothing with the main story. It felt almost as if the writer had two things that he wanted to write about simultaneously so he ended up with merging and creating this bizarre combination.
I can see the book as a very good cinematic material but not a reading material.
Sir Arthur is definitely a great writer but I wish he has more adventure books like (The lost world) than this dull book with it's irritating main character and low quality events.

The mystery was interesting, but the second half was too long. I spent most of it wondering how it related to the main story; I think the beginning section explaining the backstory of John and Lucy Ferrier should have only been alluded to in the narration, rather than taking up as many pages as it did.
