This book is excellent, it is complex and does need attention paid to it, but that just makes it all the more gripping. There is one part of the puzzle that is not questioned early on that I suspect most 'armchair detectives' will catch, and it turns out it is not asked because it is part of the twist, but despite heavily suspecting that twist was coming, a lot of the ending still caught me off guard and I still feel it's a masterpiece despite that.

A masterpiece of Murder Mystery Fiction
