i feel like i need to re-read this book now that i know what the twist is to see how much i missed! i enjoyed the pacing of the story and the obvious homage to agatha christie's and then there were none, which is such a great classic mystery. i felt that the writing/way the main character narrated was a little odd at first with all the analogies and metaphors, but it made more sense once the twist was revealed. i love a good locked room mystery and this was a fun one for me. this is also the second book i've read by alice feeney and i'm just as pleased with this one as i was with rock, paper, scissors. she just gets it!
