Honestly despite some MAJOR padding to the page count (Parts on a blank page for EVERY chapter) this was a great little Christmas Columbo tale.
I forgot the central premise of Columbo before picking this up. Which is that you KNOW who the killer is right away and it's about how they're caught vs. solving a mystery. The format worked extremely well here with a bevy of fun characters and some classic Columbo charm.
