Jumping Jenny by Anthony Berkeley
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

At a murderers and victim's party held at the home of Ronald Stratton a death occurs. The murder of a disliked female by virtually everyone at the party.
The murder is described early on but what will the police determine, especially as the crime scene has been altered. Roger Sheringham interferes aiming to make sure that the verdict is suicide, which becomes irritating and he certainly doesn't seem to be a moral man. Being ambivalent about the main character does distract from the story for me.
But overall an entertaining mystery.
