I think my favorite thing about this book was that Inspector Grant is a good detective, but not a savant. He's not a Holmes or a Poirot, he's just good at his job. This edition had a slur edited out, but it was still racist, since Grant attributes bad actions and motives to a particular cultural background. It wasn't overwhelming, but still worth mentioning. The mystery itself was entertaining and I liked the side characters.
