The Riverside Murder (1935) - 2/5
This is another straightforward murder mystery, uninspired and ploddingly mundane. It has a few fun side characters but a sudden, forced romantic plot beat without the requisite subplot lead-up. The mystery is not so much discovered as revealed, with the killer being caught not by deduction but by catching him in the act.
Closest comparison: It’s like the Kennel Murder Case by way of Mystery of the 13th Guest.
