Basil and Dinah are very memorable.

I liked Raymond, too, who I hadn't remembered at all—his rueful little soliloquy at the end suggesting genuine attachment rather than money as primary motive, even if not one of the Devonshire Starrs after all. I appreciate the existence of random sympathetic professional dancers in Golden Age detective fiction (cf. Antoine in Have His Carcase).
