I enjoyed reading this book. It's well-written in a smooth style, and it has interesting characters, a plausible Victorian Scottish background, and a solid plot.However, I guessed easily 'whodunnit' because the book's title makes it rather obvious to what group of people the murderer belongs. I found it frustrating that the detective inspector and his clever stepson didn't once suspect the obvious suspect.I liked it enough to buy the next book in the series.
