This is a well-written, easy-to-swallow tale (except for a few undigestable bits at the end).Daly's story has all the golden age mystery elements, including her amateur detective Henry Gamadge.

There is so much emphasis on where various suspects where when the murder takes place that a map of the estate would have been useful, and provided another golden age element.

Not a spectacular success as mystery story, it's an okay read for those looking for this 1940's type of puzzler.
