"Entertaining classic murder with a paranormal element. Enjoyed the Christmas setting, but some of the characters were rather dull. 7/10."
Rachel Temp
"Kind of boring. The characters are very underdeveloped. Didn't feel attached to any character. The ending felt too unrealistic from human characterisation."

"This was the perfect winter time murder mystery! Great for the season, and you can’t go wrong with Agatha Christie. I had no idea who did it, and it was cleverly put together. I love that the answer is always right in front of your face but never quite within reach. And that is why I’ll always keep reading her books!"
