I may be getting to the point where I've read too many murder mysteries. I'm not usually the kind of person that analyses all the clues and then tries to determine the murderer, but with this book I knew the murder's identity as soon as the murder happened. If you've read The Clocks, by Agatha Christie recently you'll have no trouble identifying the murderer. 
 All that aside, I really enjoyed this book. The cozy English country house murder mystery is like delicious chocolate cake for my brain.
