This is one of the few puzzles you created where I got really stuck when I first attempted it. Just restarted it now (after a few months) and suddenly everything fell in place. Great puzzle as always!

Gullie, great to hear from you. Congratulations, on returning to solve the puzzle. When you are stuck, sometimes the best thing to do is come back at another time. Well done!

The first third of the puzzle I thought "surely this can't be five stars" but by the end I'm convinced it is. Great puzzle!

Response from Eric: I definitely agree with you. The start of the puzzle is probably three stars, perhaps even two stars, but the solver quickly comes to a grinding halt. As you pointed out, the middle third of the puzzle is where it really gets tricky. Congratulations on the solve.

I got stuck after the first breakin but solved it eventually by couple of bifurcations. Missed a trick somewhere.

Response from Eric: There are some tricky deductions in the middle but they are there. Great job on the solve.
