I was pleasantly surprised by the outcome of this book. This was my first time reading a mystery novel and this was beyond my wildest imagination. This was so much more than your typical mystery novel with the game, the footman, and the memory aspect. Additionally, this was very well written. My only complaint would be that the story was a bit hard to follow because of the many different characters. Even between the 8 hosts I had trouble remembering who was who. Overall, an amazing intro into the world of mystery.
