This is a fun, mostly lighthearted mystery. It's not deep, but it has a lovable cast of characters, a satisfying conclusion, and several humorous parts that still hold up after all this time.
I will warn that part of the reveal hinges on a debunked pseudoscience with racist origins, but I don't think it's fair to penalize a book for things the author couldn't have known at the time it was written.
