the mystery is good. very enjoyable Lord Peter story. what bothers me though is that a good portion of the book is devoted to English bell-ringing - pulling ropes in a huge bell tower of a church.
trouble is, the language and actions are obscure so that one doesn't get what something
means...
while it's overall only about 1/8 of the book, it's in every chapter, used to symbolize what's going to happen, and being so obscure is an obstacle to full enjoyment...
