Although dated, it felt like it should be a b&w 1950s film, it was very enjoyable. Witty and clever without being obtuse. Michael Innes was a fine writer with very much an Oxbridge style. His Inspector Appleby books are intelligent murder mysteries, done with style and humour. This one is different but no less of a good read.
