Having read all of Dorothy Sayers's detective fiction, as well as the previous two posthumous sequels by Jill Paton Walsh, I entered into this expecting mild, easy entertainment. If nothing else, I keep reading these because I like the story and the characters already, though I wasn't overly impressed by either of the first two sequels. I'm glad to say I was pleasantly surprised by this one. I think it is the best one so far written by Jill Paton Walsh. The mystery was cohesive and the personal lives of the characters were mixed in well. I do wonder what Dorothy Sayers would say about some of her choices, but I like the license she took.
