5.0
I've always loved this story for the tension and terrible revelations at the end. It's just so well crafted!
Moderate: Racial slurs and Racism
Love it though I do, the story is always dinged, for me, by the anti-Traveller/anti-Roma bias during the mystery - but the villain of the piece is not them.
