Good twist on a classic

I enjoyed the story which is well paced and presented for a lover of golden age detective stories.

The narrator is quite good BUT the accent is distinctly American, which seems to be quite common in readers of translations from Japanese books, it passes but is, initially incongruous.

Dry and Clinical Whodunnit

I found this book quite dry, clinical and dull and tried audible to make it easier. Unfortunately PJ Ochan's narration was equally flat and unemotive. Unfortunately I didn't enjoy either the text or audiobook. It may be that other listeners enjoy this type of book and style of delivery.
