The book is split into two parts: one written by Tony and the other by his friend Inspector Beale. This is very effective and the writing style is pleasant. The guests at the manor house are originally brought together to try and solve a centuries' old mystery about a lost treasure, but that purpose is derailed when the murder occurs. The solution to the crime is all laid out in detail and is satisfying; and it's one of those books you might go back and re-read passages to see how you missed the clues. (An appendix outlines the solution to finding the hidden treasure, but I think that was unnecessary and headache-inducing.)
