Deckare som mestadels utspelar sig i överklassmiljö som överskuggas av känslan från ett fruktansvärt krig. Bra skriven och jag gillar uppläserskan. Detta är del 1.

Fingrar funna men inget lik. Vem kan man lita på? Också realistisk skildring av konsekvenser av första världskriget.

Bra och mysteriet var lite klurigt men väldigt många personer att hålla reda på så första halvan kändes rörig.
