Slightly complex story but great narration
I felt the story was slightly too convoluted and cliched. However, the character of Inspector French is enjoyable, although slow to appear this episode. Phil Fox does a great job of narration once again

weakest one so far
not much of a mystery and plot rather contrived compared to previous author works....imo because French brought into plot at a late stage

Enjoyable
It isn't the best detection classic. But it was an enjoyable listen, if a bit long winded in parts. The initial main character was a bit of an extremely gullible fool, believing what anyone told him - but it would have been a short story otherwise.
