Alternate solutions to the classic case are provided by well-known Golden Age author Christianna Brand and by series editor Martin Edwards. It's written in a narrative style popular at the time but less engaging to today's readers. ( ![]() 2.5 stars An enjoyable deconstruction of the classic crime novel. Various solutions - mine was offered by one of the participants but it was wrong ;-) The right solution, revealed at the end, didn't seem as 'tight' to me. A delightful mystery in which a group of amateur ‘crime circle’ decide to try to figure out whodunit after Scotland Yard has given up on the case. There are six members, and each works independently, reporting back to the circle with their theory one by one. It was fun speculating myself, and I found that the case had the right amount of complexity and possible culprits, while being easy to follow. It’s clever and was written in 1929 by a British author, which carries with it a charm of its own. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
