I always find Michael Innes' books a pleasant and gripping read, well written and cleverly crafted.
This one was no exception and I can say it aged well.
The plot is unusual for a Golden Age mystery as it starts with a thrilling chase that keeps you on the edge.
The mystery is excellent, full of twists and turns.
The characters are well written as usual and quite interesting.
I loved this book and i look forward to reading other books by Mr Innes.
Highly recommended!
Many thanks to the publisher for this ARC, all opinions are mine.

I thinks this series has potential but this book has all the issues of a first book in a series.
On a general level the book is entertaining and engrossing, after a very slow paced beginning.
The first part introduce the characters but some more action would have helped.
The historical background is well researched and interesting, it was one of the part I liked best.
The cast of characters is not always likeable but interesting, the mystery keeps you guessing.
I'm curious to read the next instalment in this series.

It's not a book for unicorn lover as it's using unicorn as a metaphor and guiding you to look inside yourself.
A very interesting and useful read.
