I'd forgotten more or less everything that happened in Enter a Murderer, even though this was technically a reread. Without spoiling it, the choice of murderer is interesting here.

I didn't love it, though. Alleyn's more obviously the lead here, and the way he toys with one of the characters -- indeed, in his reconstruction, with the lives of all of them -- didn't endear him to me.
