As with Unnatural Death, I think I've only read this once before. In fact, it was just in the last five years that I thought I should read Agatha Christie, but didn't get drawn in. This is actually a weaker book than the Sayers's mystery. There are too many detectives and the murderer feels random. Also, I didn't think much of the main romance, or the decoy romance. On the plus side, the setting is reasonably well done, and I like the Ouija-like board-tapping scenes.
