Written in 1920 and set during World War I, Styles includes many of the classic elements of British murder mysteries. Told in the first person by Hastings, it is set in a large, isolated country manor; includes a half-dozen suspects, most of whom are hiding certain facts about themselves; has maps of the house, the murder scene and a drawing of a fragment of a will; and a number of red herrings and surprise plot twists.
