The Z Murders: A British Library Crime Classic | 
so-soFinally done with this murder mystery. This author was a part of the golden age of mysteries that included the likes of Nero Wolfe, Dorothy Sayers and Agatha Christie, so naturally I was eager to pick this one up.
It wasn‘t bad and I mean it in a good way. It was a good murder mystery but it lacked clues and was rather “talky”. I would, however, like to read his other works and see how they go.
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
