This was another interesting "Miss Silver" mystery from Wentworth. I almost had to read the first two short chapters again as I felt I had overlooked something, but it turned out that three years passed just in those two chapters. After that, everything took place in a couple of weeks or less.
To make it even more interesting, the description on the back cover had absolutely nothing to do with the story.
