Okay story. Most of the second part was read by someone where you constantly have to disassemble and reassemble the words in your mind to get the actual text. Let alone its meaning between the lines.

NC TRIUMPHS AGAIN

(5 Sterne)

A pretty good story with an arch fiend and an all-knowing detective. The plot is plausible, and the solution is satisfying. The readers were mostly good and usually understandable.
