Average story with a strong emphasis on placing the 3 amateur sleuths out in front of plot elements. This device detracts from the development of other characters. This technique acts like a boat anchor was dropped stopping plot points until the amateur sleuths regain focus. Also, the dumb, misogamist and egotistical policeman becomes a constant and boring story element.

Next up Richard Osman!
