Book #1
Just spectacular. Intricately planned, delicately spooled out, and kept me guessing until literally the final word. What a ride. Felt the closest to a modern Christie I've read in a while. I'm hungry for more.

Book #2
An intricate puzzle-box of a mystery. Characters are good, pacing is prompt, and the author (once again) plays fair. It also kept its meta tone from the first book, which I continued to enjoy.

Book #3
Stevenson proves once again he really knows what sets his books apart by seamlessly mixing the meta narrative into the main investigation. This self-described "holiday special" is as twisty a mystery as ever, packed full of the series' characteristic charm and humor. It was a good mystery, too, which I only guessed part of. There's an especially fun climax too.
