- Reading
- If reading together, pause when new theories or suspects appear and compare what the students know with what they are guessing. This can keep the focus on mystery-solving without treating suspicion as proof.
- Themes
- A mystery shaped by its structure: The deaths prompt competing theories, while red herrings and the sequence of revelations carry the investigation. The mystery is plot-driven, but its events may feel disjointed rather than building smoothly into suspense.
- Worth knowing
- The plot includes repeated deaths, a fatal asthma attack, an earlier fatal boating accident and Liz’s hospitalisation with a head injury. These events make harm and loss central to the mystery.
