I will say if you like the writing style of Agatha Christie, you will enjoy this book. I found a lot of the writing boring, as I don't really like that style of writing. I did however, like the explanation of how everything unfolded at the end, and the ending of the book itself. Originally I was going to rate this book 3/5, but the last couple of chapters bumped it up by .75. It would be interesting to re-read it knowing how everything was set up, but I don't think I'm going to.
