A medium-good Christie. Lots of social observation, a decent mystery, and a mixed-up family that could plausibly be imagined as real. Finish left a little to be desired, but overall was enjoyable to read. Mixed race character wasn’t particularly well-done and had some core racism that was probably normal speaking at the time. How far we’ve come.
