While I enjoyed the story, I cannot overlook the repeated use of a racial slur. It quite ruined the book for me, and it is why I gave the book a lower rating. I know it is a reflection of the times, it just felt egregious.
This was my first Josephine Tey, and I will give her another shot since so many people have recommended her to me.

Weak plot

Otherwise, the plot is fun and twisty (if a little pat at the end), the details of how the police conducted an investigation in 1929 are quite amazing (bank notes could be traced to individuals!) and the inspector, Alan Grant, is very likable.
Good book, but...
