I have to admit mysteries don't seem to hold much appeal for me and I don't read many, so I'm not the best person to say if this was a particularly good one or not. I found it an enjoyable enough entertaining read, but it didn't ever get me really excited and I don't have much to say about it besides the plot summary you can read above. Really nice packaging, with a thick section of color photographs in the middle that add depth to the descriptions and visuals to study and puzzle over. Really awful audiobook reader, with ludicrously overdone voices and cliched accents for every character in a dialogue-heavy book.
