re-reading "The Murder of Roger Ackroyd"

who likes an orthodox detective story ...
Given that Roger Ackroyd is famous for being a very unorthodox detective story (and for redefining the entire genre), I like to imagine Agatha Christie writing this dedication with a wry smile.
The woman likes her twist endings.
