8.9/10
Despite giving you the killer at the beginning, this case has some of the most misdirects in the series. Everything seems pretty cut and dry, but Filch throws a huge wrench into everything, and even motivations aren't as clear as they seem.
I think this might be the only time in the series where there's a logical conclusion you make in court, and when you get back to the investigation phase, it turns out it was completely wrong and have to start from scratch.
L'Belle is good, not great. Jinxie is adorbs, but Damian is the key to the case and he owns every scene he's in. He's so fucking cool.
